Again, how do I prove someone didn’t say something? You say that he did, so post it here. It shouldn’t be that difficult.
Trump himself has not provided evidence that he didnt say it.
Do you think if you are the president of the USA and there are tweets from your own twitter account, and they were not written by you (or approved by you) you would stay sitting in the White House counting your dollars bills and packing your bags?
No… you would be screaming saying this is not what I said… but that is not the case is it?
The quotes from twitter are copy and paste from his tweets.
The speech he gave on January 6th… is a word by word of his speech.
The videos of his campaign where he asked people to beat up anybody who opposes are images of him.

It’s an interesting philosophical position you’re taking. I admire your desire to see/hear things for yourself, but I’m not so keen on the black/white approach to the truth.
Proof, or evidence, comes in many forms, and gives different levels of confidence. Our ability to judge those things that are neither absolutely true or absolutely false helps us get through the day.
I’d also challenge your statement that “politics is about control” with “politics is about popularity”.

I’d challenge that statement in that politics changes nature from pre to post election.
Wait…what? I already did. See above. Specific quotes…
Did the President make those statements, yes or no? This is not complicated.

Known as Psyops, the group uses information and misinformation to shape the emotions, decision-making and actions of American adversaries.
So a Psyops Officer didn’t recognise she had become subject to the very same tactics & strategies she herself employs. 
Here is a specific quote from the speech text for the Al Jazeera site:
"I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard. "
I have such sadness everyday because I live in Ukraine…so guys, do not be sad=)

Why won’t you answer the question - did Trump say the things attributed to him, as quoted above? Until you do, there is no point in continuing.
I just posted what he said on the day and to the people that went into the Capitol building January 6th, 2021 and after reading that entire super long speech I found no statement that would lead anyone to believe that he was encouraging an insurrection or any violent activity.
Did you read it?
Some could argue this incited a crowd already worked up in a lather 
“After this, we’re going to walk down and I’ll be there with you. We’re going to walk down. We’re going to walk down any one you want, but I think right here. We’re going walk down to the Capitol, and we’re going to cheer on our brave senators, and congressmen and women. We’re probably not going to be cheering so much for some of them because you’ll never take back our country with weakness. You have to show strength, and you have to be strong.”

This whole thread just proves that TR is deep state cabal of pedalphiles.
But seriously, it amazes me that after Millenia (not Melania) of human existence, that this is textbook empire history occurring over and over. We have barely have moved beyond warring nomadic tribes, clans, fifedoms of the dark and middle ages. We’re just chimps with more effective ways to hurt each other.

Breaking news Trump has been impeached for a second time, this time for inciting insurrection.
I’m not surprised but hopefully it can be peaceful and the states can try to get along again. Then we can work on joining the UK back together from our brexit fractures.
Source here, although it’s left wing so might be untrustworthy (joking, there will be a slant to it but it should be factual).
No he hasn’t (although it seems likely). They introduced an impeachment resolution that will need to pass the house.
I wonder a bit if this is the best play by the democrats. It sounds like if it passes the house it will be pushed off for other priorities in the Senate so we could be looking at several months before there is any resolution.

It potentially forces Republicans to go on the record. Do you still blindly back Trump or do you support Democracy? There are Republicans facing re-election in 2 years that do not want to have to answer that question on the record.
My apologies, I saw formally charged and assumed too much. Don’t know too much about impeachment!
Agree that is a point just not sure if it is the wisest move long term. The last few first term presidents have come in with majorities in the house and senate and haven’t gotten as much done as expected. Does this become a distraction to what sounds like an aggressive agenda?
Still waiting.
