    Default Trump 'Unfit To Be Anywhere Near Power Ever Again' - The Washington Examiner

    Trump 'Unfit To Be Anywhere Near Power Ever Again'

    https://apple.news/AcXSMwx3lQn6fmnkTTI6I_Q

    The Washington Examiner published the blistering editorial in the wake of bombshell testimony from the Jan. 6 committee hearings.
    New testimony from the most recent Jan. 6 committee hearing shows that former President Donald Trump is a “disgrace” who is “unfit to be anywhere near power ever again,” according to right-wing news website the Washington Examiner.
    Cassidy Hutchinson, an aide to Mark Meadows while he was Trump’s White House chief of staff, gave jaw-dropping testimony Tuesday that indicated Trump knew his supporters were armed and potentially violent but encouraged them to help him overthrow the 2020 election anyway. She also testified that a Secret Service agent told her that Trump tried to grab the wheel of his armored limousine to turn back to the Capitol when the Secret Service informed him they’d be unable to take him there on Jan. 6.*

    The Examiner noted that Hutchinson, at 25, had already worked at the highest levels of Republican politics, and was “a conservative Trumpist true believer and a tremendously credible one at that.”
    “What Hutchinson relayed was disturbing. She gave believable accounts of White House awareness that the planned Jan. 6 rally could turn violent. She repeated testimony that Trump not only knew that then-Vice President Mike Pence’s life had been credibly threatened that day but also that he was somewhere between uncaring and actually approving of Pence’s danger,” the site said, before going on to relay other shocking elements of Hutchinson’s testimony, including his episode in the presidential motorcade and his “fits of rage” throwing food at walls.
    “Hutchinson’s testimony confirmed a damning portrayal of Trump as unstable, unmoored, and absolutely heedless of his sworn duty to effectuate a peaceful transition of presidential power,” the site concluded.
    “Trump is a disgrace. Republicans have far better options to lead the party in 2024. No one should think otherwise, much less support him, ever again.”
    Judge Juan M. Merchan wrote that Trump “appears to take the position that his situation and this case are unique and that the pre-trial publicity will never subside. However, this view does not align with reality.”

    Two prominent conservative news sites have published columns or editorials speaking out against former President Donald Trump, with one calling him "unfit for power" and the other saying he "willfully exacerbated the problem" on January 6, 2021.

    The pieces came after Cassidy Hutchinson, a former aide to Trump White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, testified during a surprise hearing on Tuesday about the former president's behavior in the days leading up to and during the Capitol riot.
    Reaction to Hutchinson's testimony, the Washington Examiner published an editorial Wednesday stating that Trump is "unfit to be anywhere near power again" and called him a "disgrace." It also urged Republican voters not to support him in the 2024 presidential elections.
    Meanwhile, the National Review's Andrew C. McCarthy published a column analyzing Hutchinson's testimony, writing that "things will not be the same after this."*
    "And Trump, who had tweeted that his supporters should come for a 'wild' time in Washington, manifestly knew things might get real, real bad," McCarthy wrote. "Instead of trying to stop it, he willfully exacerbated the problem — and would apparently have made it worse still if the Secret Service had not been courageously insubordinate."
    Hutchinson had detailed under oath how Trump raged at his "Stop the Steal" rally on January 6 that security was confiscating weapons, telling staff that his supporters were "not here to hurt me."
    She said he insisted on marching with protestors to the Capitol and that she was told by security staff that Trump had an altercation with a Secret Service driver who refused to take him there.
    Hutchinson's testimony was the first time a Trump staff member privy to his inner circle's deliberations publicly tied him to the attack.
    In another opinion piece published Wednesday, the Washington Examiner's senior columnist Timothy P. Carney wrote that Trump's insistence on allowing armed supporters to attend his rally demonstrated "how unfit former President Donald Trump is for office."
    "A good shepherd, upon learning that his flock had arrived armed, would have tried to defuse the situation," Carney wrote. "For starters, he would have cared for his followers' safety."
    Judge Juan M. Merchan wrote that Trump “appears to take the position that his situation and this case are unique and that the pre-trial publicity will never subside. However, this view does not align with reality.”

    You stupid fuck.

    She lied, and the Washington Examiner link is an editorial.

    Apparently they employ some commies.

    "Ms. Hutchinson stands by all of the testimony she provided yesterday, under oath, to the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol," Hutchinson's counsel Jody Hunt and William Jordan said in the statement.
    Hutchinson testified for nearly two hours on Tuesday as well as gave recorded depositions in advance of the hearing, where she vividly described her experience at the White House close to Meadows and then-President Donald Trump during the days leading up to and including the Capitol Hill riot. Hutchinson described how Trump and Meadows had been repeatedly warned in advance and on the day of the attack about the possibility of violence including from armed individuals at the rally.

    Unlike Hutchinson's testimony, the limited denials were not made under oath.
    “If we have to have a choice between being dead and pitied, and being alive with a bad image, we’d rather be alive and have the bad image.”
