Trump busted for slip-up admission about the Jan. 6 insurrection

During a discussion on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" on the dueling interviews of Vice President Kamala Harris and Donald Trump on Wednesday, co-host Jonathan Lemire singled out an admission by the former president on the Jan. 6 insurrection that appears to have gone unnoticed.

Speaking with co-hosts Mika Brzezinski and Wilie Geist, Lemire first praised Harris' performance on Fox News where she faced an abrasive Bret Baier, telling the panel, "The Harris people I spoke to in the aftermath of the interview said it showed real toughness. They love that she was able to say things to Fox News viewers who wouldn't normally hear them. It's not a coincidence; this interview happened hours after she appeared with a dozen of Republicans, lawmakers who are supporting her."

Turning back to Trump, he pointed to a clip of the former president appearing at a Univision town hall where he was asked about the 2020 presidential election and the Jan. 6 MAGA riot that followed.

As the obviously fuming Lemire explained, "Mika, one more note about Donald Trump yesterday, the clip we played about January 6th, talking about 'we,' as he always talks about, uses the word 'we' when he talks about the January 6th rioters."

"He said, 'we were there peacefully, they had the guns," he reported. "The 'they'? They were Capitol police officers –– that shows you Donald Trump's framing of January 6th."
