New details from the Jan 6. Committee investigation emerged on MSNBC on Friday that revealed just how Donald Trump felt about his supporters storming the U.S. Capitol after he lost the election.
According to the interview transcripts, Trump was actually pleased and “loved” every moment of it.
The insight was provided by former White House Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham during her interview with the Jan. 6 Committee, in which she placed herself in critical conversations in the West Wing of the White House throughout the insurrection.
In the released transcript of the interview, Grisham said, “Some of his comments were that these people looked very trashy, but also look at what fighters they were…he did feel they looked trashy, but he loved how they were fighting him.”
Cynthia Alksne, another former federal prosecutor and MSNBC legal analyst said the new evidence pinpoints both the intent, actions and reactions of Trump.
“He did it,” Alksne said. “He liked it, and was not sorry about it.”
