New Delhi, June 29, 2022, Wednesday

Even after the defeat in the 2020 US presidential election, the then US President Donald Trump, who wanted power, expressed his desire to join the riots on Capitol Hill. It is said that the whole chapter was formed at the behest of Trump, who lost the presidential election.

On January 6, 2021, hundreds of supporters of former US President Donald Trump stormed the Capitol Hill in the capital, Washington, disrupting a joint session of Congress. The session was held to approve the results of the 2020 presidential election.

Former U.S. President Donald Trump was eager to join the crowds rioting on the U.S. Capitol last year. Trump also tried to snatch his Secret Service limousine from the driver. Cassidy Hutchins, an aide to White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, made the remarks in his testimony during a House committee hearing Tuesday.

According to media reports, Cassidy Hutchins told a congressional panel that Trump sat in his car after addressing a rally near the White House. Trump was trying to reach the Capitol with his supporters but security officials refused to go to his supporters who had gathered in the Capitol to protest. According to Cassidy Hutchinson, Trump said, "I'm an influential president. Take me to the Capitol now." He said he received the information from another White House official.

Second Capitol Hill scandal hearing:

The House of Representatives held its second hearing on Tuesday to investigate the January 6, 2021 U.S. Capitol riots. The House Committee is investigating what Donald Trump did during and after the riots. During his testimony, Cassidy Hutchins also said that President Donald Trump knew that his supporters also had weapons, but he did not care, and according to Enken, he had to reach Capitol Hill.
