💨 Abstract

On the fifth anniversary of the January 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol attack, Democrats criticized Republicans for downplaying the event, while former President Donald Trump delivered a speech to Republican lawmakers that barely mentioned the riot. Democrats sought to highlight the attack, where Trump supporters tried to overturn his 2020 election defeat, while Trump focused on jokes and his political agenda. Trump briefly criticized the investigation and media coverage of the riot.
