An “irate” former President Donald Trump lunged for the steering wheel of his presidential limousine and grabbed for the throat of his top Secret Service agent when his security detail refused to drive him to the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, a former White House aide testified Tuesday.
Cassidy Hutchinson, an aide to former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, said Mr. Trump urged Robert Engel, the head of his security detail, to take him to the Capitol while he was being driven away from his “Stop the Steal” rally on Jan. 6, 2021.
Ms. Hutchinson wasn’t in the limo, but testified that another White House aide told her about the incident.
