“Proud Boys” founder Gavin McInnes: His wife chose Joe Biden

An hour after CNN announced Joe Biden to be the winner of the presidential election and Manhattan broke out in cheers and horns, Gavin McInnes is sitting in his house 30 kilometers north and wondering whether he should order a security service. From his living room, McInnes can look out over the Bay of Long Island and a small coastal road that meanders between the house and the shore. A black Mercedes SUV is crawling by at walking pace. Kool & The Gangs echoed “Celebration” from the car, then a hand emerged from the passenger window that formed into a fuck finger. The neighbours.

McInnes calls out. “That’s the way it goes all the time. Fucking Liberals.”

The rest of the coastal town seems to be celebrating, they honk their horns in their electric cars, women who are not quite so young with yoga mats in the backseat swing their Biden peaked caps through the sunroofs. In many of the front gardens of the big houses there are still the Biden / Harris campaign signs. Only McInnes has an American flag hanging at half mast this Saturday.
