NC Trump supporters who traveled to DC explain how protest unraveled
WASHINGTON (WNCN) – Several of President Donald Trump’s North Carolina supporters were in Washington, D.C., as protestors stormed the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday.
Joshua Flores, Michele Morrow, and other members of Stop the Steal NC made the trip to Washington to protest the results of November’s election. They witnessed the peaceful protest unravel.
“People got news on their phone that Mike Pence said he is not going to object to these seven states, and he was going to accept the electoral college that promotes (President-elect Joe) Biden,” Morrow said.
“That is when everybody got really upset and that’s when they started storming,” the Cary resident added.
A crowd of Trump supporters was seen tearing down barricades, breaching the U.S. Capitol, and illegally storming the halls of Congress.
