Biden: What Trump Did on January 6 ‘Should Follow Him to His Grave’
Jill and I met President Trump and his entourage in the Diplomatic Reception Room, and then I escorted him into the Oval Office for our formal meeting, accompanied only by our chiefs of staff, Jeff Zients and Susie Wiles.
Key points
- In my case, that feeling was magnified by the dismissive and destructive nature of Donald Trump, who seemed unable to tolerate the idea that someone else’s accomplishments might be worth building on rather than tearing down.
- To this day, Trump and his supporters continue to preen and posture like they’re supporters of law enforcement.
- I wanted to give him a wide-ranging overview of the issues that I thought would dominate his presidency.
What Trump did on January 6, 2021, should never be forgotten.
Trump announced these policies at a rally as, at a five-star hotel across from the White House, oil and gas executives sipped champagne and nibbled on Pop-Tarts emblazoned with his image.
Additional details
- His goal was to remain in power after the American people had voted him out of office.
- I didn’t really understand why he was buttering me up, so I cut off his compliments to move on to the business at hand.
- Trump was immediately chatty and surprised me by adopting a tone so friendly that I thought he might be putting me on.
- Still, I had a lot to share with him, and our conversation, scheduled for 30 minutes, ran for close to two hours.
- I had rejoined the Paris climate accord on my first day in office; he canceled our participation, again, on his.
