NEW: Trump had NO intention of calling the rioters off. Kevin McCarthy pleaded w/ him on a call on Jan 6. But Trump didn't care. He wanted it to happen. He knew the danger. And facilitated it by doing nothing.
Wow. Republicans are speaking on the record. #ImpeachmentTrial

.@JakeTapper: So during the insurrection, GOP leader calls Trump to call off the mob. And Trump says, "well, Kevin, I guess they care more about the election than you do." As terrorists attack the Capitol & kill people.
This #ImpeachmentTrial is not over.

@jaketapper Here's the story: New details about Trump-McCarthy shouting match show Trump refused to call off the rioters. A furious McCarthy told Trump rioters were breaking into his office through the windows, and said, "Who the f--k do you think you are talking to?" cnn.com/2021/02/12/pol…
@jaketapper Republican members of Congress said the exchange w/ McCarthy showed Trump had no intention of calling off rioters even as lawmakers pleaded w/ him to intervene. Several said it amounted to dereliction of duty. cnn.com/2021/02/12/pol… #ImpeachmentTrial #TrumpIsGuilty #ConvictTrump
@jaketapper This bombshell report shows Trump's state of mind, a craven indifference to life—during a domestic terrorist attack.
Trump knew what rioters were doing. He knew Congress was at risk. He supported it. He enjoyed it.
Republicans, find your soul. #ConvictTrump
