I have no legal training, but it would seem so. Was Jan. 6th at the Capitol a huge entrapment scheme? But who is “catching” who?
Purposeful and premeditated undermanned and standard security
when there was to be a rally of hundreds of thousands of people several blocks away.
The rally was a "Stop the Steal" vote fraud gathering
with many upset, and some outright angry, people coming together.
Add to that the Trump Derangement Syndrome by many of the Dim's leadership, and the need for vengeance in order to prevent Trumps return to the Presidency.
An impeached federal officer cannot return to federal office !
The easiest solution is to play the 'blame game', insure the continuation of "cancel culture"
and go forward with a rapid impeachment without any bi-partisan discussion before a decision.
The Trump Derangement Syndrome is strong in the Dim leadership
otherwise there would have been a covid relief package passed over nine months ago !
