Jan. 6 Witness: Trump 'Detached From Reality' Over Election

The January 6 committee continues to investigate the most violent attack on the Capitol since the War of 1812.

Donald Trump's closest campaign advisers, top government officials and even his family were dismantling his false claims of 2020 voting fraud on election night, but the defeated president was becoming "detached from reality," clinging to outlandish theories to stay in power, several said.

Trump's former campaign manager Bill Stepien testified Monday before the House Jan. 6 committee that Trump was "growing increasingly unhappy" at the election results as the night wore on.

Son-in-law Jared Kushner tried to steer Trump away from attorney Rudy Giuliani and his far-flung theories of voter fraud that advisers believed were not true.
