After spending the morning at the Pentagon to mark the 25th anniversary of the September 11th tragedy, President Donald Trump apparently had another attack on his mind in the afternoon — posting the 5-year-old video of him telling January 6, 2021, rioters to go home after they violently stormed the Capitol building.
The video, which was posted in full on Trump’s Truth Social account Friday without any further context, shows the president repeating his false claim that he won the 2020 election but telling rioters to go home: “We have to have peace. So go home, we love you, you’re very special.”
A White House spokesperson said Trump reposted the video Friday as “a reminder to everyone that what the Democrats did to weaponize the justice system against President Trump has been debunked thoroughly.”
It’s unclear what cases they were referencing — the criminal case against Trump concerning the Capitol attack was dismissed due to his win in the 2024 election .
Trump has been repeatedly emphasizing voter fraud in recent months, increasingly and without evidence accusing Democrats of cheating in elections. At the GOP midterm convention this week, he implored the audience to “cheat like hell” to help Republicans keep control of Congress.
The January 6 video, about a minute in length, was panned at the time for being posted hours after the attack began and for being overly sympathetic to those storming the Capitol building. Around the same time Trump posted it Friday, he also had several other posts about the midterm convention.

在五角大楼度过上午，纪念 9·11 事件 25 周年之后，唐纳德·特朗普总统下午显然又想起了另一件事——发布了一段 5 年前的视频，视频中他在 2021 年 1 月 6 日告诉那些暴力冲击国会大厦的暴徒回家。
这段视频于周五被完整地发布在特朗普的“真相社交”账号上，没有任何背景说明。视频显示，总统再次错误地声称自己赢得了2020年大选，但同时却让暴徒回家：“我们需要和平。所以回家吧，我们爱你们，你们很特别。”
白宫发言人表示，特朗普周五转发了这段视频，目的是“提醒所有人，民主党人利用司法系统对付特朗普总统的做法已被彻底揭穿”。
目前尚不清楚他们指的是哪些案件——由于特朗普在 2024 年大选中获胜，针对他的有关国会大厦袭击的刑事案件已被驳回。
近几个月来，特朗普反复强调选民舞弊，越来越多地毫无证据地指责民主党人在选举中作弊。在本周的共和党中期选举大会上，他恳求与会者“拼命作弊”，以帮助共和党保住对国会的控制权。
这段时长约一分钟、发布于1月6日的视频当时就饱受诟病，因为它是在袭击发生数小时后才发布的，而且对冲击国会大厦的人过于同情。就在特朗普周五发布这段视频的同时，他还发布了几条关于中期选举大会的帖子。
