The mythology of radical movements is often built around “blood martyrs” – and failed insurgencies become gloriously tragic uprisings, reminders of heroic sacrifice for the nation.

As @ThePlumLineGS notes, this kind of Trumpist myth-making is already underway. https://t.co/lD6vdr9A9L

Now that he is no longer the president, Donald Trump is willing to pardon the 1/6 protesters. Most of them will be out of jail anyway by 2025.
The worst thing that Trump did as president was stirring up his most delusional supporters like the Q shaman and abandoning them when they needed him the most. He also grifted hundreds of millions of dollars off them during Stop the Steal too.
Note: If he does win in 2024, he should do this though. He pardoned Lil Wayne and Kodak Black on his last day in office. He should also lock up Hillary.
