WATCH: GOP Voter Unable To Respond When Asked Why Trump Didn’t ‘Stop’ Antifa If They Were Responsible For Jan. 6

A Republican voter in Georgia who tried to blame “Antifa” for the January 6, 2021 Capitol insurrection could only shrug his shoulders when asked why Trump failed to stop the rioters.

“Morning Joe” contributor Elise Jordan was speaking with voters in the Peach State one the eve of the primary election. Failed, one-term former President Donald Trump was supporting ex-Georgia Sen. David Perdue for the GOP gubernatorial nomination, but polls show Perdue is losing by as much as 32 points to incumbent Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp.

When Jordan asked a question about Jan. 6, one man told her:

“There was a lot of bad stuff that happened that day, I agree. But I believe the portion of people that were troublemakers is very small. No. 2 how many of those troublemakers were actually Antifa or intentional troublemakers?”

The man then continued:

“There’s a whole series of questions that don’t add up, and you have to go through this much boilerplate and crap to find the three nuggets of truth or hard fact or information that really matters. I’m frustrated by the entire thing, I want to forget about it, but I looked at every photograph in the [Atlanta Journal-Constitution], about 20 photos that day. All the ones smashing and bashing and crashing, 25, 28 years old, skinny jeans with the beards. I said to myself, ‘That’s not the normal Republican.’ I mean, look at us here. I mean, maybe he was paid to do that.”

As if that wasn’t bad enough, the man began spinning all sorts of debunked conspiracy theories about what transpired on Jan. 6:

“None of it makes any sense. When you read about, you know, Ray Epps being at the one gate that fell first, when you read about the Molotov cocktails left at the DNC the night before with only a mechanical kitchen timer, not anything remotely triggered, so after 60 minutes, the timer can’t be activated. Kamala Harris went to the DNC. Bombs were found by her crew at 11:50, 12:50, within five minutes of Ray Epps giving the orders to crash the first barrier barrier. Then the riots started because the police had to withdraw from that area and investigate the molotov cocktails. There is so much going on when you bore down into the facts.”

Jordan perfectly shut down the man by asking:

“Let’s take a step [back]. So if this was happening, and it was Antifa, then why didn’t President Trump whip into action and stop it? He didn’t tweet, he didn’t call off the dogs. Why was that?”

The man could only smile wanly and shrug his shoulders, unable to find a single word to back up his nonsensical fantasies.
