How was the Ellipse Rally a secure enough place for the president to give a two-hour speech, yet the nation's capitol WASN'T a secure enough place ON THE DAY OF ELECTORAL CERTIFICATION BY CONGRESS for the president to even drive down to?
The organizers of the January 6 stop the steal rally had a permit at the ellipse for a “rough” anticipated crowd size. The “ellipse” area forms a specific perimeter In front of the White House that law-enforcement and Secret Service are very experienced securing for presidential events. Cassidy Hutchinson testified at that around 10 AM on January 6 DJT had become antagonistic with his security team because the permitted area was not filling up with his supporters prior to his speech. That is when DJT was advised by everyone surrounding him his supporters have been observed carrying firearms which is against the law that gun free zone known as the mall area. And it was further advised to DJT prior to his speech that the reason the ellipse was not filling up with people is because they did not want to go through the magnetometers and have their guns taken away and likely be arrested. Trumps response to that was to order the Secret Service and park police to take the magnetometers down and let the people in because they were not there to harm him as he the great American Putin.
So we have a case because the president wanted his armed supporters up close and personal with him so they all could be together and march to the Capitol as one body. And that was the first hint of POTUS lawlessness on the morning of January 6 because the rally that he called into being was not permitted to include a march to the Capitol.
You need to keep in mind that at the time Trump wanted the magnetometers pulled down, his white nationalist militia supporters l, namely the proud boys around 200 strong, started their very own march to the Capitol. They were not interested in hearing DJ T tell the big lie anymore because they all believed it and were there to do some thing violent about it. The proud boy attack force of 200 went to the capital and cased it for entry.
It also needs to be noted that the proud boys and the OATH Keepers leaders made an organizational decision not to use firearms during the assault on the Capitol. They planned on using the million strong MAGA mob and makeshift pitchforks to overwhelm the Capitol police security.
Trump was to supply the angry masses because as you know 209 white nationalist without guns probably would not have been able to break in. They needed stupid people like Ashley Babbitt following behind them.
That’s only part of why your questions are so freaking ignorant and irrelevant Because you refuse to observe the June 6 committee hearings before you attack them.
