John Boehner blames Donald Trump for Jan 6 riots
Donald Trump is solely responsible for Jan 6 riot says Former Republican House Speaker John Boehner which left five people dead and more than 140 Capitol Police officers injured.
Boehner says that Trump “incited that bloody insurrection for nothing more than selfish reasons, perpetuated by the bullshit he’d been shoveling since he lost a fair election the previous November.” according to media reports.
Boehner writes in the book, which is entitled “On the House: A Washington Memoir” and is due out later this month. “The legislative terrorism that I’d witnessed as speaker had now encouraged actual terrorism.”
“I’ll admit I wasn’t prepared for what came after the election, Trump refusing to accept the results and stoking the flames of conspiracy that turned into violence in the seat of our democracy, the building over which I once presided,” he adds.
