New transcript describes Trump’s chilling response to chaos that unfolded on Jan. 6

Former President Donald Trump reportedly had little reaction to the reported violence in the Capitol Building on Jan. 6, 2021, according to testimony from one of the former president’s valets.

The transcript of testimony given to the now-dissolved House Jan. 6 committee in 2022, obtained by the New York Times, was from an unnamed White House valet who was with Trump on that day. In the transcript, the valet stated Trump was told a civilian had been shot at the door of the House chamber via a notecard and did not show any reaction.

“I just remember seeing it in front of him. I don’t remember how it got there or whatever. But there was no, like, reaction. I mean, I couldn’t tell you how long that’s been sitting in front of him. But I do remember seeing that in front of him,” the aide said in the transcript, when asked if Trump showed any reaction to the notecard.

The valet also recalled a phone call on Jan. 6 between Trump and former Vice President Mike Pence, where Trump pressured him not to verify the 2020 election results.

“Mike, this is a political career killer if you do this,” Trump told Pence, according to the valet.

Smokin Joe:
Some folks go poker faced at bad news, some react emotionally and do so with a lot of obvious emotion.

As for Pence, well I don't know what they were talking about, but Pence has done plenty to kill his political career since.

libertybele:
At this point in time with all that has transpired, there is absolutely no way that you can convince me that Pence wasn't in on the J6 insurrection along with Pelosi and the DEMS to make it look like Trump and his supporters were to blame.  What kind of sweet deal was Pence promised?

Meanwhile...we have a past President who they are now trying to seize his assets to try to keep him from running and some of his supporters still under lock and key.  **nononono*  **nononono*
