JAN 6 was a devastating day in American history. In over 200 years American democracy had never been challenged the way it was done that day. The United States president, failing to accept defeat gracefully, encouraged a riot in the nation’s capital while the final votes by the electoral college were being confirmed in Congress.
Rioters were able to make it into the Capitol building, the vote count got stopped, and all legislators were told to go back to their chambers to stay safe as rioters charged into one of the most sacred buildings symbolising American democracy.
Democrats and Republicans alike were being threatened by mob violence, leaders of both parties had their backs against the wall. This could have rolled into even further trouble across the country if it was not for this one important turning point that the fiasco brought in its wake.
