‘LGBT for Trump’ Wave Flags as Domestic Terrorists Invade Capitol

Millions across the globe are still in shock from yesterday’s events in Washington D.C., which saw a mob of Trump supporters storming the Capitol and interrupting Congress as legislators were confirming the Electoral College votes from the 2020 presidential election. The scene quickly turned violent, leaving four dead and injuring many others. However, their attempts at overturning the U.S. election results failed given that early this morning, members of Congress confirmed that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris will indeed take office on January 20. Videos quickly surfaced on social media from those who attended the so-called “March to Save America” protest — to be clear, the event was not a protest but an act of domestic terrorism. The Capitol riots welcomed a slew of white supremacists, MAGA extremists, and QAnon followers. As evidenced by some footage, it also saw several members of Gays for Trump, an LGBTQ+ organization founded by Peter Boykin that tries to convince voters that Trump is one of the most pro-LGBTQ president in history. Newsflash: he isn’t.
