Brother of Capitol police officer who died after the January 6 riot says Trump riled up his 'sycophants' at Ellipse rally

During an interview on CNN's "New Day," Ken Sicknick — the brother of the late officer Brian D. Sicknick — told reporter Kaitlan Collins of his frustrations with the revelations from Thursday's January 6 committee hearing.

The question remains of what Trump was doing for the more than three hours between 1:10 p.m., when the then-president was ending his remarks at the Ellipse

"We are focusing on the fact that he just didn't act at all for three hours, which is just absolutely ridiculous," Ken Sicknick said on CNN. "For the first time in a long time, I'm angry from seeing it again and realizing that he did nothing."

He continued: "Overall, we should be focused on the fact that he started this whole thing to begin with. So yeah, he's at fault for not stopping it, but he's really at fault for riling up the crowds and getting his sycophants following whatever word he said. I'd like to focus on the fact that he's responsible for it happening in the first place.

"Ken Sicknick then called out Trump what he said was the former president's lack of concern about the country.

"It's obvious to me that his existence in the White House had nothing to do with helping the country, had nothing to do with looking out for the best interest of the country," he said.

"The silence of the three hours? It could have been him stuck, deciding whether to say something. But ultimately it was him covering his rear end and him making sure that he was in power and that he could not admit to anything happening and I can't comprehend him not doing a thing to stop that. He knew what was going on minutes after his little rally," he added.

Why do folks enjoy zotting those they don’t agree with? It terribly boring when it’s lock step. What about freedom of speech? When did conservatives become such snowflakes, easily offended by a different view point? It’s frightening and sad.

Oh, we are aware that President Trump had said he was concerned and wanted to call in National Guard for extra security. Nancy, her gang, and RINOs would never admit that though.

Because it is like trying to debate with your television tuned to CNN or MSNBC. There is no original thought and the liberal talking points are void of truth.

They should see what DU does to those who don’t tow the party line.

Or Twitter or Fakebook.

Some people think and act like FR is the only place that does stuff like that.

I guess some just don’t get that FR is CONSERVATIVE forum.

He who owns the site, makes the rules.

It's obvious to me that this guy is an anti-Trumper liar and idiot.
