Cassidy Hutchinson just gave us a smoking gun. But will Republicans care? (Barf alert)
Washington Post ^ | June 28th 2022 | Max Boot

Posted on 06/30/2022 2:33:06 PM PDT by Ennis85

On June 25, 1973, former White House counsel John Dean shocked the country with his testimony to a Senate committee revealing President Richard M. Nixon’s complicity in the Watergate coverup. He recalled “telling the president that there was a cancer growing on the presidency and that if the cancer was not removed that the President himself would be killed by it.” He thereby set in motion the process that led to Nixon’s downfall a little more than a year later.

It has taken 49 years, almost to the day, but on Tuesday afternoon we finally heard congressional testimony about presidential misconduct whose shock value might rival Dean’s. The question now is whether the Republican Party will finally realize that former president Donald Trump is not fit to hold office — that, indeed, our democracy might not survive another Trump term. Or will the GOP shrug this off, as they have every other Trump scandal, as a trivial distraction from what they regard as far more important issues, such as the price of gasoline? Cassidy Hutchinson, who worked as an aide to then-White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, electrified a television audience, Dean-style, with her firsthand account of Trump’s actions in the weeks leading up to Jan. 6, 2021, and on that infamous day itself. There were too many jaw-dropping moments to count. She described how Trump was so angry at then-Attorney General William P. Barr for saying that the 2020 election was not fraudulent that he threw his meal against a White House dining room wall, leaving a smear of ketchup. This was evidence of a president who made Nixon seem like a model of sanity by comparison.

She said Trump was aware that members of the crowd on Jan. 6 were armed but insisted that the Secret Service

Liars like Boot belong in BOOT HILL along with all the other leftist liars that the Wash. Post publishes.

Worms gotta eat, you know, despite the indigestion/diarrhea it will cause them.

Even if it was true and I don’t believe it is.

“I’m shrugging it off.”

Trump’s opponents often see things that nobody else does.

It was that way with Mueller, impeachment 1, impeachment 2, and now the kangaroo committee.

“Much ado about nothing.”

Fred Ryan, head of the Reagan Libary who is also the Washington Post Publisher and CEO apprently believes Cassidy Hutchinson. That’s all you need to know about the current state of the Reagan Foundation and Library.

Oh Max please! It wasn’t a smoking gun, it was a squirt gun and it was pointed back at herself.

Even if you believe the claims (which are laughable at best); the overall takeaway is that Trump was pissed off that the stole the election? So was I.

The Washington Post published this today. Yesterday it was proven a web of lies but they published this garbage anyway.

The only reason The Washington Post did this is they are part of the DNC propaganda team and cabal of leftist ideology. As such they are complicit liars in a fraud they know is a fraud. Their concept of logic is it is all “for the greater good and thus lying is okay for the greater good.”

If one looks a Marxism the concept of for the greater good has killed in excess of 100 million innocents and probably closer to 150 million. We do not know how many for sure. The 100 million is a low ball number.

I assure you if the radical left ever gains total control in the USA they “will kill for the greater good,” and think it is moral and right. Bill Ayers (Obama’s mentor) frankly said they would need to kill about 25 million in the USA when they take over. He was not jesting. He was 100% serious.

Now you know why they want to take our guns!

I take it Max is reality challenged.

Trump was not even in the Beast at that time.

If he had been in the Beast he could not have done what she said, it is physically impossible. You can look up a diagram of the Beast on line if you want to check.

The guy she says told her about this has said that this did not happen.
