GOP congressman: Capitol mob was just 'scared' of life without Trump [View all]



By Oliver Willis -January 13, 2021 3:22 PM

The Trump supporters rallying at the Capitol on Jan. 6 wanted to overturn the will of American voters, a majority of whom voted for Joe Biden to be the next president.

Rep. Glenn Grothman (R-WI) on Wednesday defended the mob that attacked the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, claiming they were "scared to death" of living in a country without Donald Trump in the Oval Office.

During the debate on the House floor over impeaching Donald Trump, Grothman accused Democrats of making "offensive" and "inflammatory" statements about the mob.

"They're scared to death we're going to go back to the days without Donald Trump," he said of the violent mob of Trump supporteers. "Of hundreds of thousands of people crossing this border every month. They're scared to death nobody's going to keep our manufacturing here. They're scared to death that nobody else will fight the cancel culture as we head towards an era when some things can't be said."

Grothman claimed the Trump supporters are also "scared to death" of the incoming Democratic majority, who he alleged are "teaming up" with Black Lives Matter, a group he falsely claims is "founded by Marxists and the dislike of family."
