Glenn Youngkin did not attend the event, where people expressed loyalty to flag apparently present at insurrection, which also featured phone call from Trump.
Democrats have condemned an event in support of Glenn Youngkin, the Republican nominee for governor of Virginia, after the Pledge of Allegiance was performed to a flag apparently flown during the January 6 Capitol attack.
During the"Take Back Virginia Rally" in Henrico County, Martha Boneta, the Republican host of the event, called someone to the stage who was carrying an American flag that was reportedly present at what was referred to as the"peaceful rally with Donald J. Trump" on January 6. The Republican referred to the January 6 insurrection as"peaceful" despite it resulting in the deaths of five people and a number of suspects being charged with violent offensesBoneta then asked the crowd to stand up, while those on stage turned and faced the flag to recite the Pledge of Allegiance.
Youngkin was not present at the rally held in his honor, but did feature a phone call of support fromThis is not who we are as Virginians. Tonight’s Donald Trump rally for Glenn Youngkin celebrating the insurrection against our country was unconscionable. Pledging allegiance to a flag that was at the deadly riot. Just watch.
