Former White House aide's devastating testimony against Trump
Cassidy Hutchinson is a name that will forever be remembered, especially if the US Justice Department takes the mighty step of charging Donald Trump with criminality in relation to the armed insurrection at the Capitol on January 6 2021. The assistant to Mark Meadows, Trump's then chief of staff, spoke fluently, calmly and, ultimately, very bravely when questioned by the Congressional committee investigating the January 6's attempt by Trump's followers to overturn the election result which handed the White House to Joe Biden. She revealed a man determined to back his supporters even though he was told many were armed and who refused to intervene because, as he said, they weren't going to be violent against him. And he wanted the Secret Service to drive him to the Capitol so that he could be there with them. Effing and blinding, the then president of the United States wanted his way because he was the f.... president. Everything, well almost everything, Cassidy Hutchinson said should be reason enough for American voters never ever to even consider voting for Trump again. He was clearly a man determined to overthrow the democratic result of the 2020 presidential election and remain in power and when he was told his legal adviser disagreed with him he hurled his lunch plate against the wall, splashing tomato ketchup all over the place. Cassidy helped clear up the mess. The only thing about her testimony that worries me is her claim that Trump tried to grab the steering wheel of The Beast presidential armoured limousine to force the driver to take him to the Capitol rather than back to the White House. She didn't witness this, she was told this was what happened and that this was when he said he was the f.... president. But the president never sits in the front of The Beast next to the driver. He always sits in the back. So how could he try and grab the steering wheel from the back seat which is well away from the driver's position? That didn't somehow ring true, unless he jumped out of the vehicle and moved to the driver's side to grab the steering wheel. But that sounds unlikely, and, anyway, if that is what happened, surely Cassidy would have said so. So I think that bit of her testimony, based as it was on a third party's comment, needs a little more clarification. Nevertheless, the answers she gave to the questions should ditch Trump's chances of winning a second term as president!
