Summary
The President was told, according to testimony, that many members of the crowd gathered at the Ellipse were unwilling to pass through the magnetometers because they were armed. President Trump was furious because he wanted them to come in and help fill some of the empty seats. He also wanted to march with them to the Capitol. As this section explains, it would be complicated for the Secret Service to coordinate a presidential movement even on a normal day. But with tens of thousands of supporters flooding into downtown DC, and the crowd around the Capitol becoming more violent, it made it nearly impossible.
