Donald Trump pledged to dole out pardons to Jan. 6 Capitol rioters if he wins back the White House in 2024.
The announcement came during a lengthy Saturday evening address to a crowd of supporters in Conroe, Texas.
“If I run [in 2024] and I win, we will treat those people from January 6 fairly, we will treat them fairly, and if it requires pardons, we will give them pardons because they are being treated so unfairly,” Trump stated.
The twice impeached ex-president went on to rail against the House select committee tasked with investigating the happenings of that dark winter day.
“This hasn’t happened to all of the other atrocities that took place recently. Nothing like this has happened. What that ‘unselect’ committee is doing and what the people are doing that are running those prisons, it’s a disgrace,” Trump told the crowd. “It’s a disgrace.”
