View original image[Asia Economy Reporter Hana Na] On January 1st (local time), U.S. President Donald Trump encouraged protest demonstrations challenging the confirmation of President-elect Joe Biden's victory.
On that day, President Trump tweeted, "A large protest will take place in Washington DC at 11 a.m. on January 6th," adding, "Details about the location will be announced later. Stop the steal!"
This was aimed at the joint session of Congress on the 6th, where Biden's presidential victory will be officially confirmed, urging his supporters to hold large-scale protests.
The tweet was posted at the moment when the Senate voted 81 in favor and 13 against to override the veto on the National Defense Authorization Act. With less than a month left in his term, President Trump experienced the first override of a veto during his presidency.
At a time when a majority of both Democratic and Republican senators defected, resulting in the first veto override, President Trump encouraged his supporters to protest.
Trump-supporting groups have announced plans to hold a large rally in Washington DC on the 6th.
