Trump's former homeland security adviser says the President is "culpable for this siege"
Trump's former homeland security adviser says the President is "culpable for this siege"
From CNN’s Kaitlan Collins
President Trump's first homeland security adviser, Tom Bossert, is one of many former officials condemning his response to the mob chaos on Capitol Hill.
"This is beyond wrong and illegal. It’s un-American," Bossert tweeted. "The President undermined American democracy baselessly for months. As a result, he’s culpable for this siege, and an utter disgrace."
Bossert added: "Despite of him, not because of him, police will regain control and prosecute those involved."
