Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsSome talking heads have noted that, although McConnell and others have conceded that Trump
"provoked" the January 6th Capitol insurrection, they have not said that he "incited" the riot and this is somehow significant because the Article of Impeachment charges "incitement".
Guess what "synonyms.com" lists as a synonym for "incite"?
