Three hours and seventeen minutes.
If you have any doubt Donald Trump INTENDED for violent insurrectionists to attack the Capitol Wednesday, meditate on 3:17 instead.
That’s the time between the beginning of thesiege and the Trump's 4:17 ordering everyone to go home.

Maybe you believe you can argue away Trump's rally words.
Maybe you’re like Mick Mulvaney, and you can still pretend to be “shocked” anybody took Trump literally.
But you can't argue away 3:17.
(I call bullshit “We didn’t know they’d take us literally," btw)

Ask yourself: How did it take a President 3:17 to ask a group of his own followers to stop attacking the Capitol?
What does that say about HIM?
What does that say about his intentions?

The deafening silence of that 3:17 minutes is all the evidence you need that Donald Trump intended to incite insurrection and violence against the United States. It should be an exhibit in the impeachment against him.

The facts are these:
1. 1 pm, first rioters attempt a breech at the Capitol.
2. 1:30 pm, there are reports of lockdowns at many Federal Buildings, due to confirmed pipe bombs. That moment SHOULD HAVE BEEN enough to push the President to say to everyone “please go home.”
