there was no effort to relocate the POTUS out of the city, or move him to a secure location. You would think they would have evacuated him on Marine One to AF1 and out of harm's way while an angry mob was laying siege to the Capitol building.

But no, I don't remember any mention of that. Almost like they knew what was going on but weren't worried about the POTUS's safety?
