Since the Trumpist Encouraged Domestic Terrorist Attack on the Nation's Capitol on January 6, 2021, those in the Trump Zone-Fox Island-Disinfo War world have attempted to dismiss the severity of the event by stating it was similar to the 2020 summer protests over the murder of George Floyd and other victims of police brutality.

This has extended to members of the United States Senate where Republican Missouri Senator Roy Blunt who commented yesterday (February 10, 2021:)

"Well, you know, you have a summer where people all over the country are doing similar kinds of things. I don't know what the other side will show from Seattle and Portland and other places, but you're going to see similar kinds of tragedies there as well."

Really.

Did the great majority of the people who participated in the summer protests set out to injure and kill government leaders?

No.

Were the great majority of the protests over the summer violent?

No.

Did Joe Biden encourage the summer protestors to act violently?

No.

Did Joe Biden or any of his allies lie to the protestors about the social justice cause (to stop black people from being disproportionate victims of police violence)  they were championing?

No.

Can anyone say that Donald Trump did not lie to the people who showed up at his Save America Rally on January 6, 2021?

No.

Can anyone say that Donald Trump did not encourage the people that showed up at his Save America Rally to act violently on January 6, 2021?

No.

Did a substantial number of people who marched on the Nation's Capitol set out to injure and maybe kill people?

Yes.

Are the protests over the summer to champion police reform and stop unwarranted violence against black people the same as the Trumpist Domestic Terrorist Attack on the Nation's Capitol on January 6, 2021, that was based on the big lie of the 2020 Presidential Election being stolen?

Do I really have to write the answer?
