NPR published the transcript.
Tony described him as being irate. The president said something to the effect of I'm the f'ing president, take me up to the Capitol now, to which Bobby responded, sir, we have to go back to the West Wing. The president reached up towards the front of the vehicle to grab at the steering wheel. Mr. Engel grabbed his arm, said, sir, you need to take your hand off the steering wheel.
We're going back to the West Wing. We're not going to the Capitol. Mr. Trump then used his free hand to lunge towards Bobby Engel. And Mr. when Mr. Ornato had recounted this story to me, he had motioned towards his clavicles.

(3,629 posts)...now they know who to subpoena, and I have a feeling those will be honored and the questions answered truthfully because, who protects the orange shitgibbon that tried to grab the steering wheel or strangle you, and more importantly isn't your security responsibility any more?

(42,334 posts)She made it very clear she was reporting what he said, with the SS chief in the room.
If they want to say she's a liar, they can do it under oath or they are full of shite.

(21,578 posts)so it really isn't a big deal. the revelation that they knew the crowd was armed, and were taking down metal detectors, and that drumpf said they weren't there to hurt him, now THAT is going to get used in court.

(8 posts)Trumps lacks personal courage. He couldn't even fire people face to face. He did it via text or have someone else do it for him.
From what I read when asked about walking to the capitol he sais "I didn't mean it".

(8,203 posts)Led Cassidy down that path without already knowing what's what....no one wants to see Cassidys testimony come into question..the 2 SS are Trump loyalists...if you get a chance, listen too Carol Loenig explain 1. The SUV.2.the close relationship of the 2 SS to the pig...at the end of Rachel's program tonight ..
LizCheney has been masterful thus far..can't imagine she would let something like this happen..
Ornato and Engel deposition please..under oath...I am sure this story was never brought up in their earlier testimony b4 the J6....being the loyalists they are...The J6 probably only got the scenario in the SUV from Cassidy..who was willing to share what she was told..
