A line of police officers outside the National Press Club Building in Washington D.C. Thursday night struggled to keep violent, shouting protesters at bay as Donald Trump supporters entered for the “Deploraball” inauguration celebration.

Fox News reports that some of the hundreds of protesters shouted obscenities, sprayed Mace, and threw bottles. Thugs with faces masked harassed any visible Trump supporters on the scene. There was loud drumming and chants such as "No Trump, no KKK, no fascist USA!" (You would think George Soros' money would at least buy some clever chants, but apparently not.)

More than 1,000 invited guests attended the “Deploraball,” organized by the pro-Trump organization MAGA3X, to celebrate the President-elect’s inauguration the next morning.

“Deploraball is a coming out party for a new type of Republican,” Jeff Giesea told FoxNews.com. “People are threatening us, and it’s uncalled for.”

True, but threats and violence are the totalitarian way, and the left has utterly revealed itself, both before and after the election, to be totalitarian to the core.

James Allsup, 21, a Trump supporter from Seattle, told FoxNews.com, “I was wearing my ‘Make America Great Again’ hat, and a white male came up behind me and swung at me with a flagpole – I kind of blacked out for a minute,” he said. “Before I knew it, my head was gushing blood — there’s blood on my Trump hat.”

“I’m all for disagreeing, I debate people all the time and I want to engage in these discussions, but they’re throwing bottles,” Allsup told Foxnews.com. “I would be livid if people who supported Trump were doing this to Hillary supporters.”

Wait, aren't the Trump supporters supposed to be the violent, intolerant ones? It's so confusing trying to match up reality and mainstream media propaganda.
