The group gathered in downtown Raleigh just a day after President Donald Trump was declared the apparent winner of battleground North Carolina. Supporters of Trump spent the afternoon waving "Trump 2020", "Thin Blue Line" and "Gadsden" flags.

Despite Trump's win over North Carolina, president-elect Joe Biden continues to move forward with transition plans after his unofficial election win was announced last Saturday.

Trump supporters gathered in Washington D.C. near the White House to protest the election results and assert the vote was stolen, despite election officials saying it was the most secure in U.S. history.

During the protest, Trump made an appearance via a slow motorcade drive-by.
