The current testimony by Cassidy Hutchinson is pretty damning. Trump was fully aware members of his crowd were armed and wearing bullet proof vests yet still pushed for a march to the Capitol. He even wanted these people to be let into his rally, who were not because of Secret Service metal detectors, saying "They aren't here to hurt me." Who are they here to hurt Mr. Trump? :?:

Wow. He got into a physical altercation with one of his own SS agents in a car because the SS agent would not drive him to the Capitol due to security concerns. Jesus Christ.

Very convincing testimony that shows that Trump intended to lead an armed mob to the House Chamber to threaten/intimidate Pence and/or the Reps into violating the Constitution. In a sane America, he'd never hold a government office of any kind again.

Trump wanted to get rid of the magnetometers so that armed people could be near the stage and make the crowd look bigger.

1. Do not confiscate the weapons of protesters marching to the Capitol.
2. They are not here to hurt me.

As says in the book of Matthew: On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

I promised myself I wouldn't read the posts here before listening to the hearing in it's entirety. I failed. Holy cats. :o I can't wait to listen to it!

I seem to have missed "Lunging at a law enforcement officer" on my "Pro-cop all the way" agenda notes.

Mulvaney (although modestly hedged) has backed up Hutchinson's character.
