Dozens of boisterous supporters of President Donald Trump rallied outside the TCF Center in downtown Detroit on Friday afternoon, making false claims about widespread voter fraud and taunting reporters and Black Lives Matter counter-protesters. At one point, protesters burned a United Nations flag. Some Trump supporters were carrying firearms, and most weren’t wearing masks at a time when daily coronavirus cases reached a record high on Thursday.
