Trump watches riot on TV.
Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), who will lead the prime-time hearing on Thursday, said the session “is going to open people’s eyes in a big way” as they examine Trump’s actions in detail over the hours the Capitol was overrun by a mob.
“We have filled in the blanks,” Kinzinger said on CBS’s “Face the Nation” on Sunday. Trump “didn’t do very much but gleefully watch television during this time frame.”
Kinzinger begged his fellow Republicans to watch the hearing with an open mind and ask themselves: “Is this the kind of strong leader you really think you deserve?”
