YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Former North Carolina governor, Pat McCrory, was chased and trapped by chanting protesters. Cenk Uygur, the host of The Young Turks, show you the video of Pat McCrory being chased. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

“Pat McCrory is not the governor of North Carolina anymore, but he told The Advocate that he may not be done with politics.

McCrory, who signed the anti-LGBT House Bill 2 into law, was in Washington, D.C., last weekend attending President Donald Trump's inauguration activities. On Friday, he ran into a reporter for The Advocate, who caught up with the embattled politician on the street as he made his way to the parade.

When asked if the rumors that he may be joining the Trump administration are true, McCrory would neither confirm nor deny them. "I do not know yet. I don’t have any plans in place at this time," he said.

McCrory, who fought for two months before conceding the gubernatorial election to his Democratic pro-LGBT successor Roy Cooper, expressed excitement about attending the inauguration — not only because of Trump, but because he considers Vice President Mike Pence "a very good friend."

"I’ve worked with Donald Trump on the campaign trail. Met with him many times, so I’m proud of the smooth transition. I’m proud of President Obama too," McCrory told The Advocate.”
