We need to call the events of 1/6/21 "Trump's Insurrection"

Whether the appropriate authorities can hold Trump liable, both in impeachment and in the courts, the insurrection riot was absolutely and unquestionably only intended for his benefit. Framing this issue will also help summon the political support necessary to conviction of Impeachment. We should put this event in the same category as Bacon's Rebellion and Shay's Rebellion.
