Video: American Airlines pilot says he'll divert plane and strand Trump supporters in Kansas if they don't 'behave'
A pilot on an American Airlines flight from Washington, DC, to Phoenix, threatened to divert the plane and strand unruly Trump fans in Kansas.
The flight was on Friday, two days after a mob of Trump supporters broke into the US Capitol, which derailed Congress's session and led to five deaths.
From the beginning of the flight, Videos show people chanting "USA" and "fight for Trump."

He said: "This is the way it's gonna be… it's a four and a half hour flight to Phoenix. We'll put this plane down in the middle of Kansas and dump people off — I don't care. We will do that if that's what it takes, so behave, please."
