Hutchinson, who served as senior aide to Trump's White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, first revealed the dramatic incident in a sudden hearing in the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 riot in the U.S. Capitol.
Hutchinson testified that the president's chief of staff, Jeff Meadows, warned her in the days before the break-in that "things could get very bad."
The aide also claimed that Trump housed his supporters, who knew they were armed, to break into the House of Representatives and Senate compound.
According to Hutchinson's testimony, when he told Trump that his supporters had arrived armed at the protest arena in front of the Capitol building, detailing the weapons in their possession, he did not look up from the phone and asked indifferently "is that all?".
