Trump supporters did not shy away from violence when they stormed the Capitol.
One man apparently even planned to shoot Nancy Pelosi.
Experts are concerned.
On Wednesday, January 6, 2021,
violent supporters of
the outgoing US President
Donald Trump
stormed
the Capitol.
According to experts, the event could be "just the beginning" - researchers express deep concern about the violence of the Trump loyalists.
A man had apparently planned
to kill
the Speaker of the House,
Nancy Pelosi
.
Washington - The video footage of the attack by
Trump supporters
on the
Capitol
are terrifying.
Numerous videos and photos circulated on social networks.
A violent right-wing mob penetrated the heart of US democracy on Wednesday.
Devastated.
Five people were killed.
The FBI is looking for the Trump supporters *.
And apparently it could have been even worse.
Because more and more information about the extent of the planned violence is coming to the fore in the US media.
As reported by the US broadcaster CNN, a man is said to have planned
to kill
the Democrat and Speaker of the House of Representatives,
Nancy Pelosi
.
He is said to have written to friends that he intends to "put a bullet in Pelosi's head".
In his luggage: a rifle and hundreds of bullets.
Federal officials were able to arrest the man, he is waiting for his court hearing.
I heard at least 3 different rioters at the Capitol say that they hoped to find Vice President Mike Pence and execute him by hanging him from a Capitol Hill tree as a traitor.
It was a common line being repeated.
Many more were just talking about how the VP should be executed.

Donald Trump's violent supporters: expert concerned about "terrorist movement"
Several
Trump loyalists
are also said to have
gone
in search of
Mike Pence *
, whom they consider a "traitor".
Because before
Donald Trump
had asked his vice-
president
several times to change the election in his favor.
A desperate attempt by the man who is still
clinging to the baseless
claim of election fraud
.
Since then, Pence has messed up with the base.
In a tweet, a Reuters journalist reported that he had heard statements in the Capitol from people who wanted to hang pence.
For the
terror expert
Peter Neumann, the events of January 6th were “just the beginning”.
That reports n-tv.
"What we saw on Wednesday was not yet terrorism - but rarely has a terrorist movement announced itself so spectacularly," Neumann told the broadcaster n-tv.
After the
handover
to the elected US President
Joe Biden
on January 20 *, the last reluctance of
Trump *
supporters could
fall.
"The essence of
QAnon
is the belief that the US government and actually the entire establishment is ruled by a satanic sect that aims to protect a network of child molesters," Neumann describes the
conspiracy belief
that many
Trump- Attach loyalists
.
Donald Trump: Handover of office to Joe Biden on January 20 - researcher sees Capitol storm as a success for mob
“We must not let the communists win.
Even if we have to burn DC down.
Tomorrow we will take back DC and take back our country !! ”These words wrote on Thursday, the day after the
storming of the Capitol
, in the right platform thedonald.win.
"Trump will be
sworn in for a second term
on
January 20th
!!" he added.
There are increasing signs that
Donald Trump's
loyal base is
still ready to use violence - and that January 20, the inauguration of US President-elect
Joe Biden * is
in view.
A researcher from the
University of Toronto
expressed deep concern to CNN.
"While the general public was appalled by what happened at the
Capitol
, in certain corners of the kind of right-wing conversation what happened is viewed as a success." The world's eyes continue to turn to Washington.

Nevertheless, it is discussed how Donald Trump should go early.
