A supporter of President Trump is leading a caravan from San Diego to Washington, D.C., for a Trump rally.
“This is a peaceful, non-militant way to have our voice heard for the truth and integrity,” Josh Cantor said.
“This is about the integrity of elections,” he told KUSI San Diego. “We’re here to say we count every vote that’s valid, and we don’t count every vote that’s not valid.”
Trump Caravan organizer, Josh Cantor, explained there are many different caravans originating from cities across the United States.

The group “Caravan for Truth” was launched on social media and has grabbed the attention of other Trump supporters across the country to travel from their respective locations and meet in Washington.
“This is one of many, many thousands of launches that are happening across the country. And the first date that people are really culminating in D.C. is this Saturday. And you may have heard of the Million MAGA March that’s happening Saturday at noon from the Supreme Court to the Capitol,” he said.
“In the following days after that, the crowd in Washington is going to grow.”
On Thursday, White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany projected that the turnout of Trump support in the district this weekend will be “quite large,” but she didn’t have an estimate.
“People want to show up and have their voice heard. I mean this president — look, he got more votes than any Republican nominee, or for president, I should say, in the history of our country. And indeed, he got more Republican votes as any nominee in the history of our party back in 2016,” McEnany said.
The event comes as media outlets declared Joe Biden as the victor of the presidential election, which Trump has contested, saying voter fraud tipped the election in Biden’s favor.
“Our campaign will start prosecuting our case in court to ensure election laws are fully upheld and the rightful winner is seated,” Trump said in a statement on Saturday. “The American people are entitled to an honest election: That means counting all legal ballots and not counting any illegal ballots.”
