Summary

Within three minutes of President Trump's "Be there" tweet, a user posted on TheDonald.win message board: "Trump Tweet. Daddy Says Be In DC on Jan. 6th." In the days that followed, users on TheDonald.win discussed: surrounding and occupying the U.S. Capitol; cutting off access tunnels used by Members of Congress; the types of weapons they should bring; and even how to build a hangman's gallows. Trump Campaign Senior Advisor Jason Miller interacted with users of the site leading up to Jan. 6 and sent a text to the White House chief of staff saying he "got the base FIRED UP."
