David French notes that Trump's denials were on an app, while Cassidy Hutchinson's claims were under oath

Cassidy Hutchinson’s testimony, which will be remembered for decades from now, earned her a “thank you” tweet from ABC News’ Jonathan Karl. Hutchinson told the gripping story about how President Donald Trump attacked and strangled a Secret Service agent before lunging for the steering wheel of the presidential SUV. As we’ve noted, Hutchinson’s secondhand retelling of the tale made headlines in all the papers but has since been relegated to “anecdote” status.

They keep gaslighting the public by pretending the steering wheel anecdote was at all critical to the larger scope of the testimony. https://t.co/1QtgPIaetG

See, we shouldn’t even be paying attention to the steering wheel anecdote, especially now that the Secret Service has offered to testify under oath in response.

Testifying before Congress under oath is a big deal. As we reported, Donald Trump refuted Hutchinson’s claims on Truth Social, but Hutchinson testified under oath (even if it was hearsay) — David French wants to know who you’re going to believe?

In a series of messages on his social-media site, Truth Social, Trump denied Cassidy Hutchinson’s claims. But his denials were on an app. Her allegations were under oath. Which words matter more? https://t.co/5qPtO00PFv

His, considering numerous people have come forward saying she was lying. JFC….. https://t.co/URbBTGyAwP

David knows the prospect of being prosecuted for lying to Congress about a Republican is a paper tiger. David is pretending otherwise because David is a bad person. https://t.co/FTB85MxkrG

By the way, one of the reasons I don't want Trump to be nominated for president again is because his Justice Department helped continue the tradition of letting people lie to Congress with impunity — even when the lies hurt him.

Even assuming that @DavidAFrench is a terrible lawyer, he cannot be so incompetent as to not know that hearsay testimony that is immediately refuted by the parties who were actually there is worthless.

Which probably means he’s being paid not just to write, but for this opinion. https://t.co/iOx5v5zrBF

Wait, you believe the "lunged for the wheel" thing? Like I mean even before Trump said anything about it? https://t.co/IH87W1XMpO

Not a Trump fan but can we get corroboration from someone who was there? It seems like that should have been done before she was brought forward. @DavidAFrench what are your professional thoughts on this?

The ones that are corroborated by the people that were there

'Under oath" doesn't mean shite if all she does is tell stories of what other people said.

Brennan and Clapper lied under oath to a legit Congressional committee and nothing happened to them. It's almost like no words in DC matter anymore. https://t.co/QNaBOp2Fuo

Yes, Hutchinson was under oath. She also wasn’t actually present in the SUV, so we think it’s more than fair to have doubts.
