Background to the attack on the Capitol
On January 6, 2021, Trump supporters held a rally outside the White House to protest the passage of articles of impeachment by the U.S. Congress. Soon after, some demonstrators stormed the Capitol and clashed with police, resulting in more than 1,200 people charged with the riot, more than 900 of whom pleaded guilty or were convicted after the trial, which left five dead and more than 140 police officers injured, though Trump has always denied any responsibility and has repeatedly tried to defend his supporters.
It also led to a criminal investigation of Trump, the first impeached president in U.S. history.
Trump called Capitol incarcers 'hostage'
On the Clinton campaign trail in Iowa, Trump made remarks against those who attacked congressional jails. He said those incarcerated after the attack were "hostages" and accused the Biden administration of mistreating those "who were prosecuted for assaulting Congress." Trump's remarks sparked controversy and criticism, with some arguing that it was an irresponsible act that could have a negative impact on society.
The political wrestling between Republicans and Democrats
Trump's remarks reflect the political wrangling between Republicans and Democrats. Relations between the two parties have been tense over the past few years. Trump, as the representative of the Republican Party, has been trying to maintain his political status and influence. However, with the coming to power of the Biden administration, Trump's approval rating gradually declined, and in order to regain support, Trump took a series of measures, including making controversial statements and attacking the Biden administration, these actions are aimed at boosting the votes and influence of the Republican Party, but at the same time exacerbating the instability and division of society.
At last:
Trump's remarks calling the inmates who attacked Congress "hostages" have sparked widespread concern and discussion. This incident not only reflects the political wrangling between the Republican Party and the Democratic Party, but also highlights the division and instability of American society.
Moreover, Trump's remarks are undoubtedly a challenge to the American justice system, as a former president of the United States, his words and deeds are undoubtedly extremely influential, however, for those who were imprisoned for attacking Congress, whether they really became "hostages", this is worth thinking deeply!
