YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

President Donald Trump, despite aides telling him he couldn’t travel to the Capitol after his speech, insisted on going anyway, and resorted to trying to grab the steering wheel and lunging at the driver, Hutchinson said.

“I’m the effing president, take me up to the Capitol now,” Hutchinson said she heard that Trump told Bobby Engel, the lead of his security detail. Trump reached to grab the steering wheel of the car, was told he was returning to the White House and then Trump motioned to Engel’s clavicle.

Hutchinson said she spoke to House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy during Trump’s Ellipse speech, and he was alarmed. “Figure it out, don’t come up here,” Hutchinson said McCarthy told her.

Cipollone also told Hutchinson to prevent Trump from going to the Capitol that day, telling her “we’re going to get charged with every crime imaginable” if Trump interferes Congress’s official counting of the electoral votes, she said.

Trump denied grabbing the wheel of the vehicle, saying in a social media post that the claim was “fraudulent.”
