Rep. Dean: Trump ‘Lit The Match’ That Caused The Capitol Hill Riots | Andrea Mitchell | MSNBC

Congresswoman and impeachment manager Madeleine Dean (D-PA) tells Andrea Mitchell that President Trump “lit the match,” causing the riots at the Capitol on January 6. Dean also pushed back on the notion that impeaching a former president is unconstitutional. “And we do know, number one, it is constitutional because the text of the constitution is not just about removal as a result of impeachment and conviction but also future disqualification. The framers knew very much the threat of mobs and demagogues," she said. Aired on 01/25/2021.

    1. Hello please do you get my email i have been waiting to hear from you please get back and let me know okay .waiting for your email soon thanks and God bless you and your family please contact Me. Email leonardmarybeth4@gmail.com

    1. Democrats lack the sac to stand up to Klan Gop..White Liberal media STILL calling this white terrorist attack a “riot” shows what side they are on… whiteness. This is how we got here

    2. @Noir Path They did everything they could. Senate Republicans blocked them. What would you suggest Democrats do?

    3. @proud Liberal democrats were silent when antifa and blm burned and murdered for a year so stop blaming republicans

    4. @Richard Thomas democrats stealing votes and giving more to other countries than us is how we got here.

    1. @Diego A Right, as you point out, Trump supporters carried out an insurrection and domestic terrorist attack against our nation’s capitol. They are Traitors to the United States of America.

    2. @Jeremy Backup Trump stirred them up on January 6th they even said the President invited them at the capital

    3. @Jeremy Backup the constitution defenda the right to over throw the government when being treating unjust. Taxes alone are a b I g enough reason considering thats how this country was formed

    4. @Johnny Rocketfingers nah the bullets start and yall will die 100 at a time. The politicians may be protecting but fire bombing their supporters will be easy. Gonna be gard for.you communist for vote when most are dead

  1. This was planned out from the day scheduled for attack, transportation of all those that came, aid from key members of police and other government agencies in execution of attack, the bombs and weapons for attackers of capital and those that showed them where to go in the building. All these traitors must be found and prosecuted.

    1. Wrrid they are traitors but antifa and blm are justified and yall believe news stations caught making fake videos.

  2. Lighting a match and yelling “fire” in a packed theatre is against the law. Lighting a match and causing an insurrection should be against the law! Yes? No? What do you think?

    1. Yes, that was settled in 1930– was what some old relatives told me.

      Next, the CONSTITUTION/Preamble SUPERSEDE the Amendments: they are to support and reinforce the”general Welfare..” and NOT TO COUNTER, or DILUTE, etc in any way. 🗽

  3. Why was this clip uploaded? It’s 25 seconds long and spends more time asking you to like and subscribe than sharing any news or opinions?!?

    1. I miss Chris Hayes’ cheerful end clip telling us to watch “lots of other great videos” …

      … also, Joy Reid’s double-entendre about pushing “that button down there” !

  4. Give it up already Andrea! Please do something else. Thank you for yrs of journalism service but now it’s time to move on.
