Where the hell is Trump?
Last I checked, he's raised a quarter billion dollars under the "Stop the Steal" banner and, as far as I can tell, has not spent a single penny on the legal defense for any of these folks, his strongest supporters, who are languishing in jail and facing way disproportionate sentences.
It goes without saying, he could've pardoned every last one of them before he left office.
Excellent point.
Pardoned them all? Trump didn’t even know what all their charges were at the time or who exactly he would be pardoning.

In addition, many hadn’t even been arrested at that point.☺
Too bad Trump didn’t have your counsel.
He could have but that was a risky proposition. While it is true that most people arrested acted peacefully during their time in the Capitol, a significant minority have weapons charges and assault charged filed against them. A blanket pardon lets them out too, and makes Trump look like he's soft on crime.
You think President Trump should have been clairvoyant? It goes without saying? Good Grief.
I suspect the dems are using them as bait in a trap.
If he helps them, I suspect Dems would cook up some awful charge like terrorism or insurrection and use any support given to “prove” Trump instigated the whole thing.
He wouldn’t have needed to raise another quarter billion $
Isn’t he a multibillionaire himself?
True that.
I’m guessing here but from a legal standpoint of he were yo get involved given what is going on with the J6 Committee it would harm him and the J6 defendents. It would cause the corrupt judges and the juries to treat them more harshly and might even lead to convictions. It’s just my opinion but I think Trump is concerned but has been advised to keep his distance.
