“I didn’t realize how bad … they set us up to fail,” Lazewski said.
I do not know what the cop is trying to express.
Did he expect to actually manage a crowd in a responsible manner as a law enforcement official? And was he disappointed that someone higher up in the food chain made such responsible management a difficult feat? Was this officer disappointed that things got out of hand despite his best efforts?
Or was he egging the crowd on, trying to get them to go where they should not go and do what they should not do? Was he trying to cause trouble so that Trump supporters could be arrested? Who set him up? How was he failing?
Basically: If undercover cops are chanting and pushing and encouraging entry to the capitol -- how are these cops being set up to fail???? Was he just play-acting for the recording so that he sounds all innocent even when he is manifestly a cause of the problem?
I’m having a hard time understanding this also. Were the undercover officers originally in on the entrapment part of Jan 6 but then realized they were set up by those higher up on the food chain, then they just became part of the “insurrection” themselves thinking all order was lost and they should just take the mother fockrr (Capitol building)? I’m lost.
