Newsmax has Cuchinneli on explaining Pelosi was in charge of Capitol police, Capitol police had the authority to call in the guard but it would take days for the guard to deploy with the proper equipment and ROE.
Further Trump could not order anything because it was not his jurisdiction, other agencies could respond IF they were invited by the Capitol police. He said the three branches have their own protection and just rushing in uninvited could have resulted in blue on blue chaos.
Exactly. Separation of powers. Pelosi has the responsibility of the legislative branch and Trump had the authority of the Executive branch.
