Mr. Trump had referred to the rioters as “hostages” and victims of an unjust legal system, and had long maintained that the pro-Trump mob, who assaulted the police, smashed windows, ransacked offices and threatened to hang his vice president, had engaged in largely peaceful protests.

In the interview on Tuesday, Mr. Trump maintained that they assembled “peacefully and patriotically.” He also falsely claimed again that he had won the 2020 election.

This is disgusting.
