Pelosi Vows to ‘Punch' Trump Out If He Came to the Capitol, New Jan. 6 Video Shows
. “I’ve been waiting for this. For trespassing on the Capitol grounds, I’m gonna punch him out. And I’m gonna go to jail, and I’m gonna be happy.”
The deployment of the Guard was delayed for hours as Trump stood by and did little to stop the violence of his supporters. The concerns were not theoretical. Around 3 p.m., as a Trump loyalist outside Pelosi's office pointed her finger and shouted, “We're coming in if you don't bring her out," the speaker was huddled somewhere else in a room with Schumer, who said, “I'm gonna call up the effin' secretary of DoD.”
An angrier call followed with Jeffrey Rosen, the then-acting attorney general. Days earlier, and unbeknownst at the time to Congress or to the public, Rosen and colleagues had fended off a slapdash attempt by Trump to replace him with a subordinate eager to challenge the election results.
