Imagine being 24 years old and working in the White House. [View all]
I can only speak for myself, but when I was 24, all of my values and beliefs were not yet fully formed. I didn't yet have enough life experience to know when I was being lied to and scammed. I could easily have been influenced in being steps away from the Oval Office and "The Most Powerful Man in the World." I might well have suspended common sense in such surroundings.
Cassidy Hutchinson was 24 years old. Many here are judging her harshly. Give her a break. You may be 24 now and be judging her by your own life experiences. Or, you may be the fully formed person you are today, and understand how much you didn't grasp when you were 24.
Ease up on her. And keep in mind that for a year or two, her life was at risk and she needed to be guarded around the clock by federal agents. She knew that by talking to the Jan. 6th committee, on live TV, she was putting her life on the line. Would you have done that at 24? And given the number of Trump fascists around today, she may never again feel totally safe.
Anyhow, just some thoughts about her that you may consider before judging her too harshly.
