Yesterday, November 6th, the world was surprised by a protest in support of Donald Trump that turned into an intense invasion of the United States Capitol. The individuals were there to protest against the final vote count of the American presidential election, which gave the victory to Democrat Joe Biden .
With unbelievable images worthy of an action (or horror) movie, a keen headbanger noticed a familiar face among the invaders. And there it was: Iced Earth guitarist Jon Schaffer .
Neither Jon nor his press team have commented so far on the artist's alleged participation in the event; however, it appears the artist himself confirmed his identity to the German newspaper Welt, which reported on the demonstrations. Furthermore, based on some past interviews, such as the 2019 interview with Zombitrol Productions , the guitarist stated that he was not a "fan of the left," claiming they were "as ridiculous as the far right."
Check out the footage and some fan reactions below:
