Donald Trump ignored pleas to condemn Capitol riot attack, new footage shows
BBC, 22 Jul 2022
Former US President Donald Trump watched last year's Capitol riot on TV at the White House, ignoring his children and aides who "begged him" to rebuke the mob, a congressional inquiry has heard.
"He chose not to act," said Adam Kinzinger, one of two Republicans on the Democratic-led committee.
The prime-time hearing was told Mr Trump did not make a single call to law enforcement or national security staff.
He was motivated by "his selfish desire to stay in power", the inquiry alleged.
