The same Tony Ornato who was promoted from lead Secret Service Agent to White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Ops, by Trump himself, which goes against the long-standing tradition that the Secret Service agents remain non-partisan.
He sounds like a blowhard. Really the testimony that matters is going to come from Bobby Engel, the one actually there. They need to question him thoroughly.
All of this shit about grabbing the steering wheel is [dadgum] meaningless. All it is now is certain media outlets and Trumpists attempting to find the one thing, that one single thing, in these hearings which they can use as "untrue" to focus upon and deem the whole thing false. However, the really important part here which should get all of the attention has been the revelation there were weapons at the Trump speech, he was told, said he didn't care as they weren't after him, expressed to security to stop taking the weapons away from people, and still wanted to lead these folks to the Hill with the knowledge a number of them came armed. I mean, this is a pretty straight forward criminal offense.
And in this country that usually doesn't matter if you're the president, in congress or a billionaire.
Trump is probably sitting in Mar-a- Lago eating McDonald's and loving all this attention. Guy eats this shit up.
If constant meltdowns and temper tantrums are considered eating this shit up, then yes, I’m sure he is.
Some interesting info here. I like the folks who zoomed in on and break down the video of Trump eating that shit up…err…I mean having a shit fit.
90 percent of his life is him throwing a shit fit. I would say he is enjoying another day in Trump land.
(CNN)Then-President Donald Trump angrily demanded to go to the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, and berated his protective detail when he didn't get his way, according to two Secret Service sources who say they heard about the incident from multiple agents, including the driver of the presidential SUV where it occurred. The sources tell CNN that stories circulated about the incident -- including details that are similar to how former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson described it to the House select committee investigating January 6 -- in the months immediately afterward the US Capitol attack and before she testified this week. While the details from those who heard the accounts differ, the Secret Service sources say they were told an angry confrontation did occur. And their accounts align with significant parts of Hutchinson's testimony, which has been attacked as hearsay by Trump and his allies who also have tried to discredit her overall testimony. https://www.cnn.com/2022/07/01/politics/secret-service-lunging-incident/index.html
Thus far I feel like they have only demonstrated what I had already surmised. It was a betrayal of the constitution. But his supporters are not going to be moved. They do not think a system that they do not control is valid.
