Trump wanted Pence to violate them constitution and overturn the election. When Pence refused he then went to an angry protest and told them to match the Capitol and fight like hell.

The then refused to deploy the National Guard to protect the Capitol and reportedly was thrilled at the fact that the certification was interrupted by the rioters.

After much pressure he finally put out a weak statement telling the rioters he loved them and they should go home, but the election was still a fraud.

What part of that fails to fall under encouraging an insurrection?
