Trump Raged That ‘Idiot’ Rioters ‘Looked Like Democrats’ on Jan. 6, Says Michael Wolff
There was a long list of things to get upset about during the Capitol riot. But, for the man who incited the insurrection, it seems there was one thing above all else that disturbed him—how low class his supporters looked.

During one call that day, Trump is quoted as having said: “This looks terrible. This is really bad. Who are these people? These aren’t our people, these idiots with these outfits. They look like Democrats.” Trump is reported to have disparagingly referred to his supporters as “the great unwashed,” and is said to have joked that he should invest in a line of tattoo parlors for MAGAists. Wolff also reports an exchange between Trump and his staff after he’d promised the crowd that he’d march to the Capitol with them. “I didn’t mean it literally,” Trump reportedly said.
