The Savage Inauguration Protest You Probably Didn't See

Jan 21 2017 - 5:35pm

Just as Donald Trump was being sworn in as president at the inauguration, protesters broke out into a chant of the preamble of the Constitution.

"We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility . . ." shouted the group of about eight.

The protesters were sitting close enough to the ceremony that Trump likely heard them. Supporters yelled back, telling the group to "shut up" and "go to hell." Security escorted the protesters out after a supporter said he was going to start a fight with the group, but not before they chanted long enough to last for the duration of the swearing in.

This wasn't the only thing to disrupt Trump's swearing in. The minute he stepped up to podium, it started raining.
