On January 19, 2017, despite harsh weather conditions, thousands of Donald Trump supporters lined up outside the Capital One Arena for a pre-inauguration rally. The event was a last-minute adjustment due to weather, leading to significant frustrations among fans waiting outside as VIPs, including influential figures and wealthy donors, entered without waiting in line. The scene underscored the emerging divisions within Trump's support base and foreshadowed future dynamics in his presidency, exemplified by the palpable agitation over perceived unfairness and privilege among attendees.
As more people joined the VIP line, Trump fans became agitated and began yelling at those they believed had skipped the line.
The haphazard planning allowed people to easily slip past the bike racks holding the line together and head toward the front.
