Ex-Trump aide Cassidy Hutchinson releases book with 5 craziest detail about the trump white house
Cassidy Hutchinson's book "Enough: The Trump White House and the January 6th Insurrection" is a bombshell that has shed new light on the inner workings of the Trump administration and the events leading up to the January 6th insurrection.
Here are five of the craziest details from the book:
- Trump lunged at the Secret Service agent who tried to stop him from going to the Capitol on January 6th.
Hutchinson testified that she was told by Trump's bodyguard, Tony Ornato, that Trump had lunged at the agent, Robert Engel, and grabbed the steering wheel of the presidential limousine in an attempt to take control of the vehicle. Ornato reportedly told Hutchinson that Trump had said something to the effect of, "I'm the f-ing president! Take me to the Capitol now!"
- Trump threw a plate of food against the wall when he learned that Attorney General William Barr had told the Associated Press that there was no widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election.
Hutchinson testified that she saw Trump throw the plate of food when she entered the dining room after Barr's interview was broadcast. She said that the plate shattered against the wall, leaving a splatter of ketchup running down the white paint.
- Trump's chief of staff, Mark Meadows, burned documents in the fireplace of his office after Trump's January 6th speech.
Hutchinson testified that she saw Meadows burning documents on multiple occasions after the speech. She said that she didn't know what the documents were about, but that she assumed they were related to the January 6th planning.
- Trump knew that some of the people attending his January 6th rally were armed, but he didn't care.
Hutchinson testified that Meadows told her that Trump had been informed that some of the people attending his rally were armed, but that Trump had said something to the effect of, "I don't f-in' care that they have weapons. They're not here to hurt me. Take the metal detectors away. Let my people in, they love me."
- Trump tried to pressure his vice president, Mike Pence, to overturn the 2020 election results.
Hutchinson testified that Trump repeatedly pressured Pence to overturn the election results, even though Pence had told him that he did not have the legal authority to do so. She said that Trump and his allies also pressured Pence's wife, Karen, and his daughter, Charlotte, to try to convince him to change his mind.
These are just a few of the many shocking details from Cassidy Hutchinson's book. The book provides a firsthand account of the chaos and dysfunction that reigned in the Trump White House, and it offers a new understanding of the events that led up to the January 6th insurrection.
