Much has been made of the inflammatory allegations in Cassidy Hutchinson’s testimony regarding Trump’s attempt to impound the President’s vehicle, some responsible, some very irresponsible. Commentators such as Jonathan Turley should have checked whether Agent Engel had already testified before the committee on June 6, rather than saying that the committee should ask the agents to testify. Others have viewed footage of the Suburban as he walked away from the stage and posted frozen images they believe prove Trump has at least leaped forward. It’s a ridiculous claim, the pictures below don’t “prove” anything.

But one thing is beyond question. The following video shows that the Presidential Suburban remained occupied and unmoved for a relatively long time after Trump’s speech.
If anyone has watched the Secret Service handle the President out in public, whether outside or inside at an event, the President is constantly on the move. The Secret Service doesn’t like it when the President sits or stands in one place for long periods of time. Safety dictates the long line of cars that never stop at traffic lights or traffic. A stationary President in an unsecured environment is more vulnerable.
And that makes the video below more fascinating than all the videos with almost “fake” images of people making up what they see a dark shadow do as President. The video below shows Trump entering the President’s suburb and then…waiting. It waits over two minutes, and in those two minutes, Trump seems adamant and angry about something, but that could be due to a Diet Coke being served wrong. What’s intriguing is that it seems like residents of the Suburban don’t know exactly where to go, which is what you’d expect if Trump demanded they go to the Capitol, but agents insist it can’t.
Based on this video, the vehicle stands still for much longer than one would expect in a normal situation. In that respect, and in that respect only, it reinforces Hutchinson’s testimony. It doesn’t confirm anything.
It seems like he sat there for a long time and moved around a lot before he drove off. pic.twitter.com/xBh0vGpBb2
