"Take the fucking mags away, they are not here to hurt me, let them in, let my people in, they can march to the capital, after the rallies are over" -- Trump"
then explain why Trump was demanding the secret service to remove metal detectors, why would he say "they are not here to hurt me"
They had guns, body armor and weapons. That is not a made up thing. That is you trying to change the conversation into your favor as a insurrectionist (since at this point denial is being complicit). Trump was angry that his rally wasn't completely filled up because many of them realized their weapons was going to need to be put away to the side.
Police officers reported AK 47's on people's bodies. They had people call them and tell them that, and we literately have the radio records for what the officers were saying.
