A woman was assaulted at a restaurant in Washington, D.C. for supporting President Donald Trump, and D.C. police are asking for the public’s help in identifying the two female suspects.
Police say the felony assault took place at around 1 a.m. on March 16 outside the Surfside restaurant in Dupont Circle. According to the police report, the 29-year-old victim, named Maricela, became involved in a conversation between the two female suspects and their male friend. After Maricela stated, “I support Donald Trump,” the two women called her a racist and attacked:
“I’m a Trump supporter. I stood by my views, then they called me a racist and then they started attacking me,” Maricela told FOX 5.
She claimed the two suspects assaulted her despite their male friend trying to step in to stop them. The victim said she took herself to Suburban Hospital in Bethesda, Maryland for treatment of her injuries, the police report said.
“After it happened, I got a bruised right eye,” the victim said. “My blood vessels inside my eye burst. I got a fractured finger, a bruised knee and minor bruises all over my body.”
On Monday, D.C. Police Department released footage of the suspects captured on the restaurant’s surveillance cameras.

A reward of $1,000 has been offered to anyone who can identify the women in the video or who has knowledge of the assault.
This is absolutely disgusting, and as we know it’s far from the first time a Trump supporter has been physically assaulted simply for having an opinion. But the mainstream media practically encourages violence against anyone who thinks differently than the liberal hive-mind, and this is the unfortunate result.
Share this to help police catch these two bigots!
