Former US President Donald Trump harshly attacked the former White House official who testified against him before the investigation committee into the Capitol Hill attack. The woman is “crazy” and lives in a “fantasy world,” Trump said in an interview broadcast on Thursday (local time) on the populist right-wing TV channel Newsmax. “She has serious issues, I’ll put it that way, mental issues.”
Cassidy Hutchinson, 26, caused an uproar on Tuesday with a stunning statement to the panel. According to Hutchinson, Trump is said to have been aware of possible violence on January 6, 2021. He knew the protesters were armed. She described several scenes she said she witnessed at the White House and recited conversations she said she had overheard.
