January 6: Do Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance have different opinions on releasing rioters?

America is on fire. That too in Los Angeles, where Hollywood attracts the world. At least 24 people have died. 16 are reported missing. Amidst the efforts to extinguish the fierce fire, this week is also a change of power in America. Next week – on January 20, Donald Trump will replace Joe Biden. Trump is going to become President for the second time. There is only speculation about what he will do on the first day of becoming President. Some are excited about this while many are scared. Amidst all this, January 6, 2021 – US Parliament riots have started being discussed again. But for some other reasons.
When Joe Biden became the President, he used to talk about taking action on the attack and riots in the US Parliament on 6 January. 6 January is the date when, after Trump's defeat in the last presidential election, his supporters attacked the US Parliament just before the transfer of power. There were violent protests across the country. At least 1,250 people were punished for this. Trump has been saying that he will pardon all of them on the very first day of becoming the President. But JD Vance, who is going to be his Vice President, has a slightly different opinion on this. What he has said about this in an interview is worth noting.
How different are Trump's and Vance's opinions
JD Vance has denied claiming that all the rioters involved in the January 6 violence will be pardoned on the very first day of Trump's swearing-in. Vance says that only if you have staged a peaceful protest, you will be pardoned, otherwise you will have to serve the sentence. While Trump has not been seen putting any ifs and buts in this so far. However, JD Vance also very cleverly denies the talk of pardon and adds ifs and buts. For example, he said that - we want to see everyone equally on the scale of justice. There are many people who think that their punishment in the January 6 case was not done in a transparent manner.
How are the convicted people charged?
More than 1,250 people have been convicted in this case. They were charged with serious crimes ranging from encroachment to treason. Some of these rioters even attacked the houses of the highest officials of America. Many of them were elected figures. For example, the US administration took a very strict view of the attack on the house of Republican leader Nancy Pelosi and Vice President (then) Mike Pence. As far as other people apart from Trump and Vance are concerned, some Republican leaders and members of Parliament are also demanding forgiveness for all those involved in the January 6 incident.
Opinion of other Republican leaders
Taylor Green, a leader of the US state of Georgia and a big name in the Republican Party, said last week that anyone convicted in the January 6 attack should be forgiven and released from jail. Green said – Even those who clashed with the police, damaged the Parliament, I think they have spent a decent amount of time in jail. In such a situation, I think all of them should be forgiven and released from jail. The answer to what kind of political and social developments will begin in America next week will start coming from January 20.
