This is a serious question for the lawyers. If you and a friend decide to do a "prank" and steal a 12-pack, then your friend kills the cashier while stealing the 12-pack, you are guilty of murder. Trump planned this insurrection for months, spent millions organizing it, then told the mob he would go with them to the Capitol and for them to fight like hell, why aren't he, Junior and Rudy being held responsible for Officer Sisnick's death, the gouging of the eye of another Capitol cop and the brutal attacks on over 125 other cops? Why aren't they responsible for the damage and other crimes as co-conspirators?
Why aren't they civilly responsible as well?
Lawsuits are being filed. The lawyers are being more careful than Trump's were.
