The night before Trump’s inauguration, demonstrators gathered outside of the “DeploraBall” – a pro-Trump event in Washington DC so named after Hillary Clinton branded them a “basket of deplorables” during the election.<br />
There was a heavy police presence outside the National Press Building, where the event was taking place.</p>

<p>Footage posted on social media appeared to show police using pepper spray to disperse the protesters, while smoke was also seen filling the street.</p>
<p>People gathered in their droves outside the ball, with banners emblazoned with the likes of “No Nazi USA”.</p>
<p>It unfortunately wasn’t a peaceful protest.</p>
<p><a href="http://londonglossy.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/IMG_0300.jpg"><img src="http://londonglossy.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/IMG_0300.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="400" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-103902" /></a></p>
<p>However, the drama outside didn’t seem to stop ball-goers from having a good time.</p>
<p>Police announced later that a man had been charged with conspiracy to commit an assault at the protest.<br />
The clashes came as tens of thousands of people prepare to stage protests in cities around the world on Friday when Trump will be sworn in as US president.</p>
