(58,785 posts)IF TRUMP WAS TRYING TO CARRY OFF A COUP OR OBSTRUCT CONGRESS, it literally doesn't matter to the legal case if this anecdote is true or not.
As for Ornata, he's known to be tRump's man and long disrespected even among tRump circles, as well as professional WH observers. He has extremely poor credibility to start with. The Republicans' promise to have him testify under oath is a bad joke, as anyone who watched the senate confirmation hearings for tRump's nominees should fully realize.
Regarding Hutchinson's testimony, she and it have all been carefully investigated by the House Select Committee. What was presented in the hearing is THE COMMITTEE'S testimony to the people. Please don't confuse the committee's credibility with tRump's, the coup elements in the GOP, and those fighting desperately to protect them.
The committee has thousands of pieces of evidence and hundreds of interviewed witnesses to these events, and some will be able to corroborate or at least support her account. They're not fools. They know the credibility everything they present will be attacked.
Last, the battle for power is enormous. There will be many more attempts to distract us from what means everything and focus us on lies and fake issues like this that, in the end, are irrelevant. Don't be fooled.
