FULL PRE-SUPER BOWL GAGGLE Trump Takes Question After Question From Reporters On Air Force One

Published | Video Starts at 08:33

No, I pardoned people that were assaulted themselves. They were assaulted by our government. I fired. I pardoned J6 people who were assaulted by our government. That's who assaulted. And they were treated unfairly. There's never been a group of people in this country, outside of maybe one instance that I can think of, but I won't get into it, that were treated more horribly than the people of J6. So, no, I didn't assault. They didn't assault. They were assaulted. And what I did was a great thing for humanity. They were treated very, very unfairly. (08:33–08:45)

CLAIM

Asserts that January 6th participants were treated more horribly than any other group in the U.S., except one unspecified instance.
