He was going to be there. Secret Service put a lid on him.

As I recall, the Secret Service did try to find a path for him to get to the Capitol. There was supposedly a scuffle in the car because they would not drive him immediately but they called the Capitol police to ask for roads to be blocked off for his motorcade. The CP said no way and that was the end of it.

Trump likely knew that there was little chance of getting such an improvisitional path set up. He could not work with them beforehand because he knew that would look like a conspiracy. I really believe he thought he would get off by NOT being there.
