Woodward's book reveals that Trump and his allies were planning to overturn the results of the election long before January 6th. They pressured state officials to change the vote totals, and they plotted to have Congress reject the Electoral College results. On the day of the attack, Trump himself incited the mob that stormed the Capitol.

Trump Cabinet and the Siege on Washington is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand one of the darkest chapters in American history. Woodward's book is a powerful indictment of Trump and his allies, and it provides a chilling warning about the dangers of authoritarianism.

The Trump Cabinet

The Trump Cabinet was one of the most dysfunctional in American history. Many of Trump's appointees were unqualified for their positions, and they often clashed with each other. The Cabinet was also deeply divided over Trump's policies, and many members resigned in protest.

Some of the most notable members of the Trump Cabinet included:

• Mike Pence, Vice President
• Mike Pompeo, Secretary of State
• Rex Tillerson, Secretary of State
• Jim Mattis, Secretary of Defense
• John Kelly, Chief of Staff
• Steve Bannon, Chief Strategist

These individuals played a key role in the events leading up to the January 6th attack on the Capitol. They either enabled Trump's behavior or they failed to stand up to him.

The Siege on Washington

On January 6th, 2021, a mob of Trump supporters stormed the Capitol in an attempt to overturn the results of the election. The mob was incited by Trump himself, who had spent weeks spreading lies about the election being stolen.

The attack on the Capitol was a direct assault on American democracy. It was an attempt to prevent the peaceful transfer of power, and it put the lives of members of Congress and Capitol Police officers at risk.

The siege on Washington was a dark day for America. It was a day that will live in infamy.

The Aftermath

In the aftermath of the January 6th attack, Trump was impeached by the House of Representatives for inciting an insurrection. He was later acquitted by the Senate.

The attack on the Capitol has led to a number of investigations. The House Select Committee on the January 6th Attack is investigating the events leading up to the attack and the role of Trump and his allies.

The attack on the Capitol has also had a profound impact on American politics. It has deepened the divide between Republicans and Democrats, and it has raised concerns about the future of democracy in America.
