Cassidy Hutchinson’s new book reveals a Trump White House even more chaotic than previously known | CNN Politics
In a CNN article by Jeremy Herb dated September 26, 2023, former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson voiced her concerns about former President Donald Trump’s potential second term, labeling him as the “most grave threat” to American democracy. Hutchinson, who worked closely with Trump’s chief of staff Mark Meadows, expressed her apprehension regarding Trump’s alleged violations of the Constitution following his 2020 election loss. She highlighted Trump’s ongoing legal issues, including counts of obstructing the Constitution, as reasons he should be disqualified from the presidency.
Hutchinson’s book, titled “Enough,” recounts her experiences during the tumultuous end of the Trump administration, particularly the events leading up to the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol. She emphasized the importance of considering what a second Trump term might entail and questioned whether those facing indictments would be running the government.
The article also touched on Meadows, who is currently facing criminal charges in connection with efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Hutchinson expressed sympathy for him and hoped that he would cooperate with investigations.
Furthermore, Hutchinson discussed her disillusionment with Republican Party leaders’ response to Trump after the Capitol attack and her disappointment with their loyalty to him, which she believes compromises the party’s integrity. Despite considering herself a Republican, she no longer recognizes the party led by Trump.
Hutchinson’s journey from loyalty to criticism of Trump was detailed, revealing her internal struggle and eventual decision to testify before the January 6 committee. Ultimately, she concluded that she needed to return to the person she aspired to be when she entered public service, leading to her decision to speak out.
