But Trump’s private schedule – released by the House select committee investigating the Capitol attack in a filing on Wednesday – shows Trump must have known that there were no plans for him to join such a march, and that he was being taken back to the White House.

The newly-released private schedule indicates Trump deliberately lied to his supporters ............

He has no skin in the game, always gets others to take the risks and falls for him, but they will follow him into the gates of Hell. In my 60 years on this earth, I never met so many willing to give up everything for a con man.

You can't expect him to march. Let's show the man some respect and compassion!
