    From the article:

    Speaking at a rally in Houston, Texas, on November 2, Trump described those incarcerated after the January 6 riot as “hostages, not prisoners.” It came after organizers played “Justice for All.” It is a rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner” by the J6 Prison Choir, made up of men imprisoned after the riot, interspersed with Trump reciting the pledge of allegiance.

    The depths of stupidity don’t surprise me anymore. If this isn’t an ad for lead abatement, I don’t know what is.

      If they’re “hostages” isn’t that confirmation he was trying to overthrow the government with a non US military?
