3. During the insurrection, the republicans and right wingers recognized the violence as they hid from the insurrectionists

During the insurrection, the republicans and right wingers recognized the violence as they hid from the insurrectionists.
In the short time afterwards, they claimed the insurrectionists were antifa, democrats, and FBI.

Attacking police, killing people, stealing Congressional property, and pooping in the halls of Congress.

Now, they have revised their upfront view since Trumpers/conservatives have been sentenced to prison for it.

All of a sudden, it became a backwards view that it was 'peaceful, patriotic tourists'.

MTG said that brave republican men were holding the doors against the violent crowd.
Imagine the consequences if the mob had been allowed arms like Trump wanted.
