After the January 6 Select Committee released its final report, former President Donald Trump responded with an angry video attacking the committee and defending his actions before and during the January 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol Building. Veteran Harvard University law professor Laurence Tribe has responded to Trump's video, saying that his arguments in the video are so weak that he would be better off with an "insanity" defense if a prosecution comes about.
Trump, in the video, attacked members of the January 6 Committee as "very bad people" and claimed that they "did not produce a single shred of evidence" that he "intended or wanted violence at our Capitol." The former president insisted that the Committee was spreading "a monstrous lie."
