The pro-Trump mob assault on Capitol Hill on January 6, 2021 continues to divide US politics.
For Donald Trump it was the " largest movement in the history of our country ". This is exactly how the former president, accused by many of having been the instigator of the raid on the building that houses the Washington Congress, defined the incident, with a post on Truth, his new social platform.
"The non-chosen commission - writes Trump referring to the parliamentary commission called to shed full light on the assault - did not spend a minute to study the reason that led the people to go to Washington , in enormous numbers, much more than the Fake News Media are willing to report. January 6 was not just a protest, it represented the largest movement in our country's history to make America great again , "Trump reiterated.
The current president Joe Biden , however, almost in response to the words of the former Republican rival, said, during the Summit of the Americas in Los Angeles: "The assault on the Capitol on January 6, 2021 was a clear and flagrant violation of the Constitution to overturn the elections ".
