In 2011 Nancy Pelosi praised protestors for storming Wisconsin's state capitol. Should she be tried for supporting insurrection?

Ten years ago, union protestors stormed the Wisconsin state capitol in order to stop a vote on labor reform.  At the time, Pelosi praised their activity as a show of democracy.

A couple of weeks ago, Trump called on his supporters to peacefully protest at the US Capitol and condemned those the stormed the building.  Why is trump being accused of supporting insurrection, but Pelosi is not?

    Two reasons.

    1. Pelosi is a Democrat. 

    2. Most Republicans in office are cowards.
