-I created this map not to trivialize or justify the violent attack on the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021 by a mob of Trump supporters whose goal was to overturn a democratic election.  Instead I think it is critical that this day not be minimized or swept under the rug, and it seems that anti-democratic forces are already trying to rewrite the history of that day.  I created this map, because I hope in some small way to help keep it'memory alive in our collective consciousness.+I created this map not to trivialize or justify the violent attack on the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021 by a mob of Trump supporters whose goal was to overturn a democratic election.  Instead I think it is critical that this day not be minimized or swept under the rug, and it seems that anti-democratic forces are already trying to rewrite the history of that day.  I created this map, because I hope in some small way to help keep its memory alive in our collective consciousness.

 Trump called for his supporters to "walk down to the Capitol" to "cheer on our brave senators and congressmen and women and we're probably not going to be cheering so much for some of them." He told the crowd he would be going with them. As to the counting of Biden's electoral votes, Trump said, "We can't let that happen" and suggested Biden would be an "illegitimate president". Trump also said, "you'll never take back our country with weakness. You have to show strength and you have to be strong.
