Washington Examiner: Trump proven unfit for power again
Washington Examiner ^ | June 29, 2022 | Washington Examiner

Posted on 07/03/2022 8:30:16 PM PDT by Macho MAGA Man

Former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson’s Tuesday testimony ought to ring the death knell for former President Donald Trump’s political career. Trump is unfit to be anywhere near power ever again.

Hutchinson’s resume alone should establish her credibility. The 25-year-old had already worked at the highest levels of conservative Republican politics, including in the offices of Sen. Ted Cruz (TX) and House Minority Whip Steve Scalise (LA), before becoming a top aide for former Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows.

In short, Hutchinson was a conservative Trumpist true believer and a tremendously credible one at that. She did not overstate things, did not seem to be seeking attention, and was very precise about how and why she knew what she related and about which testimony was firsthand and which was secondhand but able to be corroborated.

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.

She also told, in detail, that Trump repeatedly insisted that he himself should join his supporters at the Capitol — even after being informed the crowd contained armed elements and that it was breaching the perimeter against an undermanned U.S. Capitol Police force.

Also distressing to hear were Hutchinson’s accounts of Trump’s repeated fits of rage, including dining table contents overturned and ketchup dishes thrown violently across the room.

That’s what I wondered.

Well, so much for that publication. They seem to have swallowed the story completely, without any real EXAMINATION.

They may be backing DeSantis as a means to move forward.
However, they shouldn’t be turning their back on Trump.

The lying liars of Russia collusion infamy are lying again about Januaru 6. Lying is what they do because lying is who they are.

They are not fit for office or to be journalists or to hold any position of Trust.

Her whole testimony was hearsay…”heard it from a friend of a friend”.

Her testimony is double-hearsay. She says she overheard a Secret Service agent say he heard it from another agent, but the agent she says she overheard says he never said it, plus the Secret Service agents involved say it never happened.

They believe whatever they want to believe.

They are truly terrified of Trump running again.

Although, after the 2020 Steal, why they should be concerned is beyond me. As long as there are RINO-controlled state legislatures, they will again turn a blind eye to Democrat cheating.

Are these HS kids who have never seen the politics of personal destruction before? Hope they find their perfect candidate the left loves.

When Trump was running for president I followed many news agencies on twitter and I noticed a lot of negative tweets from Washington Examiner about Trump. I was surprised and have not trusted them ever since.

Famous last words...

“Oh we’ve got him this time.”

He’ll pull out of the public eye any day now.

He can’t come back from this.
