Man who marched on U.S. Capitol now describes 'Stop the Steal' as a cult

Man who marched on U.S. Capitol now describes 'Stop the Steal' as a cult

On Jan. 6, 2021, Keith Scott was among those in Washington who marched on the U.S. Capitol. Now, he's describing the 'Stop the Steal' movement as a cult.

The 49-year-old had arrived in Washington, DC, as a member of the "Stop the Steal" movement, which believes former President Donald Trump's lies that the 2020 election was stolen from him, and marched to the U.S. Capitol with them.

"I felt like a patriot that was standing beside our Founding Fathers speaking up against King George," Scott told CNN in an interview on the one-year anniversary of the insurrection.

A year on, Scott is blunt about the movement he was a part of, calling it a cult. His story is complicated -- he still believes much of the "Stop the Steal" propaganda, for example -- but his journey is illustrative of how Americans like him, who said he had never attended a Donald Trump rally, get caught up in a movement based on misinformation and how it takes over their lives.

Scott, who was living on the south side of Atlanta during the 2020 election, was angry at Fox for calling Arizona for now-President Joe Biden, so he started listening to Alex Jones, a conspiracy theorist who had Trump on his show in 2015. Scott heard an ad for a "Stop the Steal" caravan, so he went to see it in Atlanta.
