President-elect Donald Trump's recent "Meet the Press" interview has triggered concerns among allies and critics about his level of awareness of the details of the sprawling investigation into the Capitol attack that has produced hundreds of convictions in the nearly four years since Jan.


The article from MSN discusses former President Donald Trump's promise to pardon individuals involved in the January 6 Capitol riot if he wins the 2024 election. Critics and allies alike suggest that Trump might need a "refresher" on the events of that day, as his statements seem to downplay the severity of the riot. Trump has described the rioters as "hostages" and "patriots," which has drawn criticism for potentially misrepresenting the violent nature of the attack. Legal experts and some of his own supporters argue that his portrayal could be seen as an attempt to rewrite history. Furthermore, the article mentions that while Trump has the constitutional power to issue pardons, doing so for those convicted of serious crimes related to the insurrection could be controversial and legally complex. The discussion also touches on the broader implications of such pardons, including how they might affect public perception of justice and the rule of law.
