Several people have been identified as having participated in both.įor example, Trump’s former National Security Advisor, retired Army General Michael Flynn and Trump political fixer and confidant Roger Stone were photographed in the days leading up to the coup attempt at both hotels.
A second “war room” was also established at the Trump International Hotel in Washington D.C. It must also be noted that the Willard “command center” was just one extension of the White House coup plot. The Willard Hotel cabal underlines the fact that the attack on January 6 was not, as Trump and most Republican officials claim, a “political protest” that got out of hand but rather the result of months of subversion headed up by Trump. The rooms, paid for by the Trump campaign, were obtained on November 5, two days after Democrat Joe Biden defeated Trump by a substantial margin in both the popular and the electoral votes.
The Post article establishes that rooms at the Willard were rented out to lawyers hired by the Trump campaign who were receiving their marching orders directly from the White House. Trump set up a “command center” at the Willard Intercontinental Hotel, located less than a block from the White House, where Bannon, along with fellow fascists such as Rudy Giuliani, plotted with Republican federal and state lawmakers, ex-Trump officials and far-right militia leaders in a conspiracy that culminated in the storming of the U.S. On Saturday, two days after the House of Representatives cited Trump’s coup co-conspirator Stephen Bannon for criminal contempt, the Washington Post published a lengthy article summarizing the efforts of Republican operatives operating out of the Willard Hotel to organize the overthrow of the presidential election.
