It’s January 6th. Donald Trump’s supporters have come to Washington from across the country. He takes to the stage at midday and tells his supporters that their democracy is under threat. He says: ‘We fight, and we fight like hell, and if you don’t fight like hell you’re not gonna have a country anymore’. What follows is one of the darkest moments in American history. Listen to Katty and Anthony discuss the events of January 6th and how close Trump came to overturning the election.
