Exactly in the same speech: he repeated his claims that the election was stolen.

You're blaming election fraud as the culprit then not trump.

Half the country is mad as hell, because there's 3k+ signed affidavits, 140 congressmen, at least two majority of state congresses, reports from data scientists, cctv footage, voting machine forensic reports in MI and AZ, and a lot of dismissal by courts based on standing not merits. It's unprecedented and it's straight up totalitarian to say "no mention of election fraud is allowed"

No, it wasn't legally incitement. It was absolutely stoked by him.
