The atmosphere in the crowd in support of President Trump changed when he declared "never give in".

Hours before protesters supporting President Donald Trump stormed the US parliament building on January 6, they were just a sparse crowd carrying flags and banners, huddled in the cold winter breeze, praying

While most of Trump's supporters gathered on the lawn in front of the White House, where the President was scheduled to speak at 11am, a smaller group had gathered outside parliamentary headquarters around 9am.

"We need to get inside that building," shouted Bill Dunphy, the missionary from Ohio, motioning to the policemen standing guard outside the metal fence in front of parliament.

Through hand-held speakers, Dunphy leads a group of protesters, urging them to have faith and not leave Capitol Hill, waiting until others supporting President Trump show up.

"We patriots should get in there," added Dunphy.

At about 2:00 p.m., Dunphy's wish came true.

Crowds of protesting with only a few hundred people this morning up to tens of thousands of people.

The crowd was angry that the police used tear gas, but in fact, only when protesters flooded the parliament building did the security forces use them in the dome.

The news that a participant broke inside the parliament building had been shot outside made the atmosphere boil over.

Trump supporters, mostly without masks, reappeared across Capitol Hill, gazing at the defiant marble dome of the congressional headquarters and booing at any black SUVs that appear.

Lisa Hayes, who describes herself as a political performer, traveled from Sacramento, California, to Washington DC a few days ago.

"I'm here because this is where the vote count (electoral) takes place and is where our support is most needed," said Hayes.

Nick Searcy, an actor from the city of Burbank, California, also has the same reason.

"This is a historic day. I want to be there," Searcy assured.

Many in the crowd practically do not know if Congress can change the election results or whether they can prevent the election "stolen" as President Trump said.

When asked what he wants to achieve by joining the rally, Dan Ellison, 53, from Charlotte, North Carolina, replied: "Nothing. I am here to support my President. That's all."

Kelly Wolf, 58, from northern Minnesota, still hopes Trump can turn things around but is not too optimistic.

Wolf believes Trump "might" have won over 50 states.

A significant number of protesters wore bulletproof vests and helmets, and mounted flashlights to the brim of their umbrellas until 10:00 a.m.

"I heard things were pretty crazy so I wanted to wear bulletproof vests," said Josh Welch, 35, an electrical engineer from North Carolina.

Notably in the crowd were the members of the Proud Boys, the far-right group of men.

As Trump began to speak, the atmosphere that embraced the crowds of protesters supporting him began to change.

This is a modal window.

Beginning of dialog window.

End of dialog window.

"You don't lose when the theft happens," Trump shouted.

"We will never give up, never lose," he added.

He then shouted to the entire crowd that had gathered in front of the White House to march toward the parliament building.

"Here, we'll be marching and I'll be there with you," Trump announced, surprising the staff by knowing nothing about his plan to join the march.

In about an hour since Trump spoke, Capitol Hill was packed with people.

"Everyone is besieging the parliament building!", A man yelled into his phone to announce the situation.
