I think they need to show clips from the 'pre-riot' rally at the Senate Trial as part of the case. Don Jr. and the other nuts set the stage for the fire with endless extreme violent references. Trump knew just what they were gonna say... he just had to light the match on the riot.
Look for yourself...

It is total bullshit to say that our 1st Amendment and the concept of free speech allow for terrorist hate speech and inciting violence. You cannot yell fire in a crowded building if their is no fire. You cannot call the FBI and make a fake threat to bomb the building. And you cannot continue to claim a presidential election was stolen and tell your supporters to 'fight the steal' or they will lose their country, when you have already exhausted every legal avenue to prove your case! You can't say that to a mob and send them to march on the capitol as they are counting electoral votes without expecting violent results.
Trump did that and while the riot ensued he posted the message 'this is what you get when you steal an election'.
