CNN reporter Donie O’Sullivan attended the first post-presidential rally for former President Donald Trump this past weekend, The Hill reports.
Plenty of his supporters attending the rally stated that they fully expect the ex-commander-in-chief to be reinstated before the end of the summer. Furthermore, these supporters also warned of potential political violence in the United States if Trump doesn’t return to his position.
“He didn’t lose. I know he didn’t lose,” one woman told O’Sullivan.
“He’s coming back soon, and you guys are going down,” another Trump supporter told the CNN reporter. “The military already knows it was a fraud. He won by over 80 percent. He’s coming back before the middle of August.”
O’Sullivan responded by stating, what if Trump isn’t the president by August to the supporter. “We’re going to be in a civil war because the militia will be taking over,” the Trump supporter responded.
The CNN reporter spoke to another person at the rally discussing the Jan. 6th attack on the US Capitol. One Trump supporter stated that it wasn’t a good idea to go inside, but it happens when everyone is running on adrenaline.
“Yeah, I don’t think anybody should have went inside, but when you’re worked up in the moment, and the adrenaline is pumping, you know, it just happens,” the man in a Kevlar vest said.
