A dark day in the history of the oldest existing nation with a constitutional government

On January, 6th, while legislators were gathering to certify Joe Biden election victory, President Donald Trump told thousands of supporters to walk to the Capitol building. And after Trump's supporters had began to gather outside the meeting place of the U.S. Congress, legislators were forced to abandon the congressional session as the Capitol building was locked down. 

At 16:20 President elected Joe Biden called on Trump to immediatyely "demand an end of this siege". But the President Donald Trump, in a twitter video, repeated false claims that he had won the election, and, on the other hand, he urged his supporters to go home in peace. A Trump's supporter, Ashli Babbitt, was shot inside the Capitol building and died later. At 05:00 pm crowds began to disperse around Capitol Hill. 

On January 7th, at 03:40 am, according to Electoral College votes, Congress confirmed Joe Biden as the winner of the 2020 U.S. election.

This week the majority of U.S. house of representatives, 222 democrats and 10 republicans, voted to impeach President Donald Trump over Capitol violence. Democrats had accused Trump, who is leaving office in five days, of inciting a crowd to storm the Capitol on January  6th. He is the only U.S. President to be impeached twice. Most people in the U.S. think that man is a danger for their democratic country, which is the oldest existing nation with a constitutional government.
