The number of protestors attending Trump’s speech and the Capitol Protest on January 6 depends greatly on the politics of the reporter. Left Wing sources report thousands of people attended both. Government estimates I’ve seen report between 30,000 and 80,000 at the speech and 10,000 “on the Capitol grounds.” Right Wing sources report hundreds of thousands at the speech, and tens of thousands marching one hour to attend the Capitol Protest. Less than 300 have been charged with a violent crime. Whatever numbers you believe, the vast majority of the protestors on Jan 6 observed the First Amendment “right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” But all are called “Insurrectionists” by those who hate them.
