Gee, which one will I believe? A hired hit gun in a kangaroo court of public coercion telling fantastic stories of superhuman feats she heard from a fiend of someone who heard it in the bathroom stall or from the actual secret service agents who were there at the time? Hmmmmmm......

Just stop already. You and the others are looking silly.

What you meant to say, of course, was "Will they believe what a Trump loyalist said under oath who worked next to the Oval Office and across the hall from Ornato, or will they believe a possibly fictitious account of what the agents allegedly said to refute her statement as reported by "anonymous sources" to a talk show host?

Decisions, decisions...

Not completely accurate.

Two separate statements are being reported (both via Peter Alexander):

1. A source close to the Secret Service says both men dispute Trump grabbed the steering wheel or assaulted an agent. They do not deny that Trump was irate and demanded they drive to the Capitol.

2. Here is the quote from actual person with a name, Anthony Gugliemi, spokesman for Secret Service: “the Secret Service has communicated to DHS that any and all personnel that the January 6th Committee requests are available to testify under oath, responding to [Hutchinson’s] new allegations.”

That non-stop laughter is not a good sign. Beyond comical? Maybe someone with that problem should seek professional help. Maybe counselling or a rest home or retreat.
That is especially true if they think the topic at hand is somehow funny. It is very serious.

Apparently Trump was NOTin the Beast but an SUV like he rode in on his hospital joyride
So easier to reach into the driver’s front seat
Check the video interview w/Maddow that shows the SUV carrying Trump back to WestWing after speech

She is talking to woman who wrote book about SS failures and lack of professional standards

I've heard partisans make some really funny statements in the past, but this one tops them all and they actually force themselves to believe it.

I just can't stop laughing. It's beyond comical at this point.
“Grabbing for” and “lunging” are a pretty far cry from succeeding at either of them. I can imagine the fit secret service agent gently plucking tiny hands away.

Whether or not Trump lunged for the wheel is irrelevant to the much larger issue: Trump intentionally tried to enable armed supporters to march to the Capitol. THAT is what's going to sink him, not throwing a childish tantrum in the back seat of a car.

It won't sink him because it's pretty obvious it didn't happen. LOL Trump was in a totally different SUV from the vehicle this bimbo claimed he was in. He also didn't "enable" anyone to do anything.

Thank you! Even if Trump did really "lunge" or "grab" at someone or something, he was surrounded by way too many fit and trained SS agents that could easily disable him.



As I mentioned a handful of posts back, at most, the POTUS as at least 3 agents sitting next to him, in the event something happens while they're driving. No way in hell would Trump be able to out-muscle those guys.
