'Trump seemed to sense danger’ after Jan. 6 committee successfully amplified its major allegations: analysis

Donald Trump realizes the danger posed by Thursday's prime-time public hearing of the House Select Committee Investigating the Jan. 6 Attack on the U.S. Capitol, according to a new analysis by Bloomberg.

"In an age when viral memes and social media conversations shape perceptions, two highlights of Thursday’s session may prove the most durable: Trump Attorney General William Barr and the former president’s daughter Ivanka saying they didn’t believe his claims of a stolen election, and the live testimony of a Capitol Police officer. The officer, who was injured in the melee, described a 'war scene' in which she and her fellow officers were pummeled by rioters and slipping in blood," Mike Dorning and Bill House reported Friday.

"The moments, along with chilling video of Trump supporters clashing with police and a rioter reading a Trump tweet from a bullhorn as insurrectionists charged up the Capitol steps, directly discredit continuing claims the presidential election outcome was illegitimate and efforts by Republican political figures to dismiss the significance of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack," the added.

The hearings were broadcast on all the major networks except Fox News.
