None of the above. A Trump rally, some confused people who ended up in the Capitol and weren’t sure what they were doing there, and a whole lot of hyperbole from the left.

Well you can probably find it the same place you'll find Trump saying some neo-nazi's are good people and all Mexicans are rapists and murderers. Oh and you should also be able to find Schiff's evidence of Trump colluding with Russia to steal the 2016 election there as well.

Blame that on a badly worded poll, not a lack of incitement

I'm open for suggestions, although I suspect your issue might be with the options provided rather than the wording.

The whole question is incitement of what by who?

Change D to "rhetoric for violence".
Then add G - All three C, D & F.
Then add H - I drink Kool-Aid and voted for A or B.
Then add I - I don't drink Kool-Aid but listen to nutcase Tucker and voted for A or B.

The whole question is incitement of what by who?

Incitement doesn't mean you have to suggest a specific behavior and certainly doesn't have to be "a call for violence". Trump could have incited (or provoked, if you prefer) violent actions even if he didn't say anything close to "take up arms and take over Congress". Perhaps:
D. Spontaneous riot motivated by Trump's inciteful rhetoric
(I think you'll agree to the first word change at least  ;) )

I'm not really sure what F is. Wouldn't that be included in most of the others, just a question of if it was planned or spontaneous, etc?

H: A version of @AsherO's option
I: C, D, & H

I would change my vote to I.

Of course how much each of the C, D, and H is up for debate, but there is plenty of evidence for all of those, and you can sprinkle some of B in (I'd remove the word most). If I had to choose the primary option and ignore all the secondary ones, I'd go with H.

Perhaps by a few crazies, and  another bunch of curious onlookers. Trump had nothing to do with it other than him liking controversy and being a baby about losing the election.

It wasn’t even remotely Belarus, Myanmar, or Kazakhstan.
