You selectively left this one out:
"I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard."

Yes I left this out because this was a mere whisper surrounded and overwhelmed by his repeated calls to action and incitement for violence.
Can you point me to an actual transcript of Trump's January 6th rally speech that not only reveals what he said but also provides a timeline for his remarks? Seems to me when Trump intentionally worked up this mob of already angry folks and followed it with an, oh by the way, do it peacefully comment, it is rather meaningless. I seriously doubt very many of those folks storming the capital heard that part of his speech and if they did, they discounted it because it was in complete contrast to everything else Trump told them to do.
Blow the place up, but BTW do it "peacefully". This just doesn't wash.
Here you go, make of it what you will because I know you will.
"After this, we’re going to walk down — and I’ll be there with you — we’re going to walk down, we’re going to walk down — anyone you want, but I think right here — we’re going to walk down to the Capitol, and we’re going to cheer on our brave senators and congressmen and women. And
we’re probably not going to be cheering so much for some of them. Because you’ll never take back our country with weakness, you have to show strength, and you have to be strong. We have come to demand that Congress do the right thing, and only count the electors who have been lawfully slated — lawfully slated.
I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard today."Those were not his only directions to the crowd, however. In the same speech, he also used the following phrases while encouraging people to head to the Capitol and protest his election loss, according to the transcript and video of the speech:
“
We will stop the steal.”
“
We will not let them silence your voices.” Note: "We"
“You have to show strength, and
you have to be strong.”
“We have come to
demand that Congress do the right thing.”
“We’re going to try and give [lawmakers] the kind of pride and boldness that they need to
take back our country.”
“We’re going to have to
fight much harder.”
“
We fight like hell, and if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country anymore.”
Oh and BTW, do this peacefully.
