MAGA fans clash with cops in protests across the country as Trump claims the Georgia runoffs are 'illegal and invalid' because of the 'unconstitutional' voting process
Hundreds of anti-lockdown protesters were seen in Salem, Oregon on Thursday afternoon, many of whom were waving Trump flags as they urged officials to reopen businesses
Meanwhile, in Pasadena, California, Trump fans staged a car parade to show their support for the President
Many are still refusing to concede that Trump lost the election and will be out of the White House in less than three weeks
Meanwhile, Republicans are clinging to hope that they can maintain control of the Senate in two Georgia run-off races
But Trump has now claimed that the run-off races are 'illegal'; he made the claim in a series of tweets posted about 'election fraud' on Friday night
Democrats currently hold an edge in early voting in the run-offs, leaving Republicans looking for a big Election Day boost next Tuesday, January 5
Democrats Jon Ossoff and Rev. Raphael Warnock are running against GOP Sens. David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler, respectively
If both Ossoff and Warnock are successful the Democrats will have 50 senators and a majority with Vice President-elect Kamala Harris as a tie-breaker

MAGA fans have taken to the streets in Oregon and California to show their support for President Trump and to protest lockdown orders put in place amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
Hundreds of anti-lockdown protesters were seen in Salem, Oregon on Thursday afternoon, many of whom were waving Trump flags as they urged officials to reopen businesses.
Police declared the event unlawful and dispersed protesters with impact munitions and flash bang grenades after the group refused to leave downtown.
Several protesters became angered by that move and were pictured facing off with officer clad in riot gear.
Others launched their own smoke grenades and 'several people were arrested', according to local police.
Meanwhile, other protesters assembled outside the gated mansion of Governor Kate Brown, claiming that the Democrat's lockdown orders were a violation of their liberties.
To the south, in Pasadena, California, MAGA fans showed their support for President Trump as he continues to cry foul about the results of the presidential election.
