      I don’t know that we should be advocating for violence here. If we do that, we may find our opponents responding by doing the same, resulting in a positive feedback loop of escalation. I mean it’s not like they [checks notes] carefully planned and organized a rally based on an extremely inflammatory lie, riled up the attendees, told them to fight, sent them to the Capitol Building resulting in an angry mob that stormed the Capitol while actively calling for the deaths of the VP and several members of Congress, killing some people and vandalizing the offices of Congress…oh, no. Well, at least they weren’t pardoned for their flagrant, violent insurrection…oh, no. You know what? Just disregard my earlier comments. Carry on.
