âCassidy Hutchinson, the former Trump White House aide who delivered bombshell testimony to the House committee investigating the January 6 insurrection, defended the anecdotes she recounted under oath in her first TV interview since her Capitol Hill testimony.
[âŚ]
Hutchinson recounted that an attorney she initially worked with, who had been provided through Trumpâs political connections and money, had made clear to her the less she recalled to House investigators, the better. She answered several questions in her initial interviews â before switching attorneys â with âI donât knowâ or âI donât recall,â but it âwas information I very clearly recalled.ââ
It would be interesting to hear Hutchinsonâs response to the following questions:
As of January 2017, you knew who and what Trump was â a liar, racist, bigot, misogynist, incompetent, corrupt, and unfit to be president; given these facts, what motivated you to work in an administration presided over by the likes of Trump?
Knowing who and what Trump was â a liar, racist, bigot, misogynist, incompetent, corrupt, and unfit to be president, did you believe at the time that Trump, like Reagan before him, would resign himself to be a vacuous figurehead allowing competent administrators to run the executive branch?
And knowing who and what Trump was â a liar, racist, bigot, misogynist, incompetent, corrupt, and unfit to be president, shouldnât you have anticipated that his presidency would end in infamy and failure, that you would be testifying to Trumpâs corruptions and crimes, and that you would consequently be in fear for your safety subject to violent attack by Trump supporters?
