Three years of Trump's lies about the Jan. 6 insurrection have taken their toll
On Jan. 6, 2021, a man who lost an election tried to steal it. That man was Donald Trump, and the election was for president of the United States. Three years have passed. Three years of Trumpist lies about that day—coming from the insurrectionist-in-chief himself, his supporters in and out of office, and from MAGA parrots in the media—have had a significant impact on public opinion. They’ve warped minds. Now, as we enter the year of the next presidential election, the impact of those lies is as strong as it’s ever been.
