Cassidy Hutchinsons damning testimony on Tuesday before the House Jan. 6 committee may have swayed at least one of Donald Trumps former staffers.
Former acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney suggested on Twitter that there is every reason to believe Hutchinsons account of Trumps actions on Jan. 6, 2021.
This is explosive stuff. If Cassidy is making this up, they will need to say that. If she isnt they will have to corroborate. I know her. I dont think she is lying, he tweeted.
My guess is that before this is over, we will be hearing testimony from Ornato, Engle, and Meadows.

I know her. I don't think she is lying.
During her testimony, Hutchinson testified that:
Both Trumps lawyer and chief of staff knew that things might get real, real bad on Jan. 6 at least four days beforehand;
Trump was so mad when his then-attorney general said there was no evidence of election fraud that he apparently shattered dishes and splattered ketchup in the West Wing ;
A Secret Service agent told her that Trump tried to grab the steering wheel of the presidential limo in hopes of driving to the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
Mulvaney had other strong opinions that Trump probably wont like.
That video is where the President lost me. We don't \"love\" people who attack the Capitol to try to prevent the peaceful transfer of power.
And there is no way the \"we love you\" line was in the script prepared for the video.

One thing is clear in my mind: Meadows will get indicted for his failure to appear. My guess is that ultimately he shows.

A stunning 2 hours:
1)Trump knew the protesters had guns
2)He assaulted his own security team
3)There may be a line from ProudBoys to the WH
4)Top aides asked for pardons
5)The commission thinks they have evidence of witness tampering.
That is a very, very bad day for Trump.

Not surprisingly, Trump attacked Hutchinson on his Truth Social platform , saying he hardly knew her while also describing her as a total phony, leaker and bad news.
However, considering that Mulvaney served as both Trumps chief of staff and, at times, his chief apologist , his support for Hutchinsons allegations made some people take note.

GOP pollster Frank Luntz noted that there is a big difference between saying something under oath and merely spouting off on social media.
Also: Cassidy Hutchinson is testifying under oath her detractors on Truth Social are not.
If shes lying, she will go to jail.
If theyre lying, theyll just get more clicks. https://t.co/rrXBKVluKT
