(FreePressBeacon.com) – As the nation braces for potential election night chaos, businesses in Washington, D.C., are taking no chances.
With memories of 2020’s riots still fresh, storefronts near the White House are being boarded up.
Freelance photographer Andrew Leyden captured scenes of workers fortifying buildings near the White House, including the Post Office and a McDonald’s.
These measures echo the chaotic aftermath of the 2020 election when left-wing rioters wreaked havoc on American cities.
The boarding up of businesses reflects the heightened tensions in a political landscape where both sides are fighting for victory.
However, recent polls and early voting data suggest a surge of support for the GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump’s campaign, particularly in critical swing states that could decide the election’s outcome.
A Suffolk/USA Today survey reveals Trump holds a narrow lead over Kamala Harris in the key battleground of Michigan.
Meanwhile, early voting data shows Republicans and independents outpacing Democrats in ballots cast in North Carolina.
Trump, who has never been one to miss an opportunity, has capitalized on Joe Biden’s recent controversial comments referring to Trump supporters as “garbage.”
Trump mocked the lame-duck Democrat by arriving at a Wisconsin rally in a garbage truck, turning Biden’s insult into a rallying cry for his supporters.
While Biden dismisses millions of patriotic Americans, Trump stands firm in his defense of the silent majority, declaring that “250 million people are not garbage.”
As Election Day approaches and with Trump gaining ground, the former president seems poised to retake the White House with the clear goal of returning America to greatness.
