Not only did Cassidy Hutchinson's appearance before the January 6th Select Committee provide compelling theater, it also shed new light on the ways that former President Donald Trump could have helped fuel the attack on the United States Capitol. Ben Berger, Associate Professor of Political Science and Executive Director of the Lang Center for Civic & Social Responsibility at Swarthmore College, gives his take on Hutchinson's credibility as a witness, and the implications of her testimony. He also examines possible charges that Trump might face, and whether the January 6th hearings could ultimately damage his bid for the presidency in 2024.
