If Donald Trump is indicted for his role in the Capitol riot, he will turn against everyone, according to Mary Trump.
Mary said on the show that no one would be safe from his anger.
She thinks he's going to turn on everyone. His circle is getting smaller and smaller as a result of the controversy. There will be very few people left.
Legal experts say that the evidence gathered by the House select committee could mean that Trump has broken at least five federal laws.
The Jan. 6 committee could make criminal referrals against Trump, according to Liz Cheney. The committee's members can inform the Justice Department of possible criminal conduct if they so choose.
Testimonies show that Trump was aware that his supporters were going to show up at the rally.
The president said something to the effect of "I don't care that they have weapons". They are here to help me. Cassidy Hutchinson testified last month that the metal detectors used by the Secret Service should be taken away. They can march to the capitol from here. People should be allowed in. The effing mags should be taken away.
She testified that Trump defended his supporters who shouted "hang Mike Pence."
If Trump went to the Capitol on the day of the riot, Pat Cipollone, his former White House counsel, warned him that he would be charged with every crime imaginable, according to Hutchinson.
Cipollone was summoned to testify before the committee. Lofgren said he didn't contradict testimony provided by Hutchinson. Several prominent figures argue that Trump should be indicted.
According to former Justice Department officials who served in Republican administrations, there is enough evidence to prosecute a former president.
The former officials issued a call last week for the DOJ to prosecute Trump, saying there was evidence that he was involved in a criminal conspiracy to interfere with the congressional hearing.
Glenn Kirschner, a former federal prosecutor, thinks that Trump will be indicted for his role in the insurrection.
There have been no criminal charges against Donald Trump.
It will change. If we care about our democracy, it has to change. He will be charged with a crime.
Michael Fanone, a former DC police officer who was beaten during the riot, believes there is enough evidence to indict Trump. A majority of Americans think the former president should be criminally charged for his role in the insurrection.
Mary said in the interview that if Trump is indicted, he will try to clear his name or blame someone else.
She said that we should expect a full court press by him and everyone in his circle to change the subject, muddy the waters, and cast blame on everyone from the lowliest of White House aides on up. He won't take it lying down, and he will engage everyone who is willing to work for him.
Mary said that Donald didn't do it alone. "He was able at every turn from people in his inner circle, everyone in the executive branch, and the entire Republican Party."
If formal charges are brought against Trump, his legal team may use a number of strategies to clear him. Legal experts told Insider that his lawyers could argue that he really believed the election was rigged.
