The US Capitol
Report from Washington says, while Americans are anxiously awaiting the outcome of “this historic” presidential race, Washington is bracing for the worst.
According to Euronews, the “District of Columbia is preparing for another violent attack of supporters of Donald Trump should he lose to Kamala Harris.”
The White House complex is looking like a fortress. A black metal fence of more than two meters in height has been added to already existing tight security measures.
Federal and local authorities fear scenes reminiscent of the deadly assault on the Capitol on 6 January 2021.
On that day, a pro-Trump mob ransacked the halls of Congress, as the then-president spread lies about his election loss.
Trump has already started to question the integrity of the vote even before ballots are counted, especially in Georgia.
In the southern state, Republican top-election officials and the courts have debunked claims of fraud, but that hasn’t stopped Trump from repeating them, resulting in an atmosphere of suspicion and hatred. — Euronews via SG
