I know that people invaded the U.S. capitol in order to send a message about Donald Trump. What I am confused about is why people did this. What was the point? What would this even prove to people?

I know that Trump was the one that told his supporters to go mob the Capital when they were going to announce the winner of the election. I just wonder why Trump would do that; I mean, he's done all sorts of negative things, but asking his supporters to mob the Capital is just... too much.

Topline

Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-N.J.) has tested positive for Covid-19 and she believes she was exposed while sheltering with several colleagues who refused to wear masks during last week's violence at the Capitol, once again putting a spotlight on some Republican leaders' unwillingness to follow coronavirus safety protocols in Congress.

Key Facts

Key Background

Last week, several members of Congress were forced to bunker down in enclosed spaces with limited social distancing after a mob of Trump supporters forced their way into the Capitol building. Several news reports and statements from Democratic lawmakers suggested that some newly elected Republican members of Congress refused to wear masks while sheltering. According to a memo sent out by the attending physician of Congress on Sunday, several lawmakers may have been exposed to Covid-19 during Wednesday's events. In a letter to members of Congress and their staff, Dr. Brian Monahan said that while many members of the House were in "protective isolation" in a committee hearing room while a pro-Trump mob wandered freely through the Capitol Building, they "may have been exposed to another occupant with coronavirus infection."

Crucial Quote

Speaking about Wednesday's incident to CBS News last week, Rep. Susan Wild (D-Pa.) said: "It's what I would call a COVID super spreader event," adding that many lawmakers huddled in a room were refusing to wear masks, adding that some newer Republican members were "openly flaunting that they are refusing to wear a mask."
