" What's Undetermined
We were unable to determine why there were conflicting reports around a purported denial to send in the guard. There was some “confusion” in the process of deploying the National Guard which led to the delayed response, but the details around this confusion are presently unknown."

He's in charge of the DoD and could have immediately ordered the DC Guard to the Capitol at any time.

After some delay, the D.C. National Guard was deployed in the Capitol. Virginia and Maryland said they would also send their guard. A Washington Post reporter quoting an anonymous source said the Department of Defense initially denied D.C. officials' request to deploy the guard."

Does that mean Trump denied request to deploy the guard because he is the commander in chief?
" What's False
The Department of Defense denied the report but acknowledged that they had not acted upon the request immediately. They initially offered to replace police in other capacities in the city, allowing more police at the Capitol."
Is that Trump's fault too? Were they just following Trump's orders?

If the DOD denied requests does that mean Trump denied requests? Yes or no?
Nancy Mace begged aides to let her confront the mob, with the goal of getting roughed up and then leveraging the incident to be the face of an anti-Trump Republican sect. She wanted to set up Trump and you can bet she was not the only one.
