From the VERY slanted “fact check” in the Washington Post article you linked Trump told the acting Secretary of Defense “You do what you need to do. You do what you need to do.’ He said, ‘You’re going to need 10,000.” The fact that Miller may not have followed through with that is on him. Trump was clearly stating that the Capitol should be secured, whether 10,000 was hyperbole or not. The fact also remains that it wasn’t secured. Where I come from, when your boss tells you to do what you need to do to fix a situation, you follow through. Why would someone who was supporting an insurrection attempt tell the Secretary of Defense to fortify the very place where the insurrection was supposed to take place?
