Trump Makes Jan. 6 Confession
Donald Trump, during an interview with New York Times Reporter, Maggie Haberman, who is the author of the book Confidence Man: The Making of Donald Trump and the Breaking of America, said that he did not know about the storming of the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, until “afterward”. He also said that he was “not watching television” at the time.
The question asked by Haberman about this was, “How did you find out there were people storming the Capitol?”
Trump, in addition to his initial response, also said that he was confident that the Capitol Police would be able to control these people, only they were not able to, and that “they did lose control.”
On January 6, 2021 Capitol Hill was raided by Trump supporters who wanted to stop the certification of the 2020 presidential election.
Trump has said that the election was rigged and has rejected the results of the election. His claims have been disproven and rejected by both courts across the U.S. and independent polling experts.
During the attack, more than 150 police officers were attacked and injured.
Ashli Babbitt, a 35-year-old Trump supporter, was shot dead by a police officer inside the Capitol. The investigation showed that the policeman’s actions had been lawful.
General Keith Kellogg, the president’s acting national security advisor, had said that at the time Trump was in the White House’s dining room with his aides, including then-White House chief of staff Meadows. He also said that he thinks all of them were watching TV.
Molly Michael, Trump’s former executive assistant, has also said that from her understanding they were all watching television.
