On Jan. 6, 2021, an angry mob of Donald Trump supporters swarmed a CBC News crew working near Capitol Hill. Nearly four years later, reporter Katie Nicholson tracked down one of the people who surrounded her that day to find out what she’s thinking heading into another volatile U.S. presidential election.
Was worth the watch for the emotional contortions the supporter twists herself into when confronted by one of the people she threatened, her Democrat-voting husband dealing with it all, and that messed up Trump paraphernalia store.
Ooof, that racist “slip” and the quick attempt to cover it. Minutes 4:38-4:46
Look at all the … illegals comin’ in here. Takin’ over our … white job-uh, black jobs, Hispanic jobs…
Our voices didn’t matter. It didn’t matter how we voted.
My suspicion is that she feels that way because she lost. A wild guess, but I think she’s so selfish that she can’t imagine other people’s voice/desires mattering as much as her own personal wishes; their votes shouldn’t count like her’s does.
As someone who voted for Al Gore and Hillary Clinton, I know how she feels.
Fair. But I think the reason behind that feeling is different between the two of you. One is internal, the other is systemic. Though I guess if you were to ask her, she’d say the same thing in reverse.
She can say whatever she wants, but she’s a god damn idiot, and no one smashed any windows at the capital when the voice of the people was actually ignored.
I realize I sound somewhat hostile, and it’s not directed at you. People like her just really piss me off.
Zero proof of anything and zero reason to doubt anything, yet both women they talked to know in their hearts that the election will be stolen (again in their minds).
The biggest point all those election deniers ignore is that almost the only Republican with any chance of winning who didn’t win that election was Trump. Why would Democrats not steal the election from goddamn Mitch “The Turtle” McConnell? Why would they they “allow” Republicans to gain 12 seats in the house?
sorry, but you just used a bunch of critical thinking that trump supporters don’t seem to have… lol
Critical thinking leads to critical overload which in turn leads to critical failure to compile
I couldn’t finish. That lady is disturbing.
“They…they…they…found ballots…”
And that’s when I stopped watching.
That was enough crazy stupid for me.
I would like to see where onion girl is.
God I still laugh at that. Thought I wore it out, but now it’s funny again.
Thats a stupid!!!
Sorry, when I saw the name I couldn’t resist.
That woman is mentally ill, and her husband is a spineless enabler. How sad and depressing.
Hell of a video — too bad that it took Canadian media to make it! If anyone had any lingering doubts about MAGA being a cult, this will confirm it.
She says Jan 6 was about “love” directly in the face of a woman whose life she previously threatened on that day. But she has to say it, because that’s what the cult told her last.
“Nothing done wrong at all,” Trump said.
"There were no guns down there. We didn’t have guns. The others had guns, but we didn’t have guns.
“And when I say we, these are people that walked down - this was a tiny percentage of the overall which nobody sees and nobody, nobody shows. But that was a day of love.”
These individuals need deprogrammers, not debate.
“The others” had guns? As in, the Capitol Police, Secret Service, and other security services who were desperately trying to stop the mob? Because I’m not aware of any “others” that were there that day.
