Does anyone have a link to the Trump speech before storming of the Capitol? All I can find are snippets that could be taken out of context,?

Update:

@Desolate... That doesn't begin to answer my question.

Update 2:

Thanks graphic... That's just what I needed.

    Here is the whole thing. Go to 3:33 for the start of the President's speech.

    And this is the other appearance from that day where he told his supporters after the rioting started to "go home in peace".

    Donald Trump did not say anything in his speech about a violent takeover or encourage violence. Nor did he tell them to break in during a congressional session.

    You should understand that no one is saying it’s just that one speech - it’s about all of Trumps tweets and speeches with the baseless claims of voter fraud.  He continuously egged on his supporters, spoke positively about violence and threats of violence against other politicians (such as the governor of Michigan).  He even praised them afterwards saying he loved them.

    If you’re searching for one line where Trump says something like “break into the Capitol and defecate on things” you won’t find it.  If you think that means Trump shouldn’t be held accountable then you can’t see the forest through the trees.

    It wasn't the speech that did the job..it was him tweeting that Mike Pence was not going to challenge the election results.

    They got pissed off and there it went.

    You are aware he lost though..right?

    Fairly and legitimately?
