After a series of trials, ridiculous dances and ensuring countless times that the 2020 elections were a fraud, it would be "disastrous" that Donald Trump, the arsonist of what happened on January 6 three years ago at the Capitol, was president again.
This was stated by David Canepa, San Mateo County Supervisor, in an interview with Peninsula 360 Press, where he added that his bet was, is and will continue to be the duo of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
Canepa, who is seeking re-election, said that the January 6 insurrection ?is really a ?black eye? in American history?, and ?is it not a reflection of what the people of the United States are?
United of America?
What happened in J6, as many call it, is simply "not a pillar of democracy," made clear Canepa, who did not hesitate to be forceful on the subject, clarifying that those who participated in the insurrection and who did things "really bad? They must be held accountable.
David sharpened his point and specified that, for Trump, these people are "heroes."

For Canepa, things are clear, those people who attacked the Capitol "threatened our democracy and must be held accountable," because what happened "goes against what democracy truly is."
Freedom of expression is a constitutional right in the US, it is simply the first amendment.
?But that was not freedom of expression, it was a terrorist attack on the pillars of the American people and our government; And we have to make sure that it never happens again? Canepa said bluntly.
Like that or more clear? The world witnessed what happened that day, no one believed it.
?What we did three years ago was not only a bad example for Americans living in the United States, it was a bad example for those around the world, and three years ago, we lost some credibility.?
But, the bell has already rung in this electoral contest, where last night, under lights and reflectors, the first blows were already dealt, the one who was beaten was Trump, he couldn't even put his hands in, Biden went with everything.
Given this, David pointed out that we must not lose our way, since the "most important thing is that the transition is peaceful."
?What happened three years ago damages the reputation of the United States of America internationally; We play a role as one of the world's leaders. We are the world leader, we talk about democracy and transitions for governments, so we have to do it in a peaceful way? And on this third anniversary should we remember it?
"This should not happen again," he told Peninsula 360 Press.
Trump was left infuriated that Biden won the presidency in 2020, and didn't allow the tantrum Trump to have a second term and the donkey returns to the wheat?
The wind will be able to move your hair, and the ?natural? cloud his mind, but Trump does not take his finger off the line and seeks to be the Republican Party's contender to place his name on the ballot.
And that's not bad, Canepa knows it. While it is true that other states, in addition to Colorado, are trying to keep him from returning to the official race, the approach is not the best.
"I think it is a bad approach and I think there are murderers of democracy, he should be allowed to run if he is the Republican candidate, if he is the one chosen," said David, because not allowing him to run would set a "dangerous precedent in the future, where potentially other candidates could be excluded?
?I don't agree with any of Donald Trump's policies at all, we are on opposite sides of the spectrum, but I have faith in the American people and that, if he (Trump) is able to run and win, we have to accept that And is it important for our democracy?
?It's important to make sure that we don't have civil strife, we don't have civil discord. But at the same time, I think that if Trump were elected president it would be disastrous for the country and that is why I am supporting Joe Biden and Kamala Harris?, he concluded.
