Dancing on edge: Don Jr. shares behind-the-scenes look at Trump getting hyped up before his rally speech as his giddy girlfriend Kimberly Guilfoyle rocks out to Laura Branigan's Gloria - hours before crowd marched on Capitol

 Donald Trump prepared for his incendiary speech by getting hyped up while family members party and dance in astonishing behind the scenes video shot hours before Wednesday's US Capitol riots.

The footage - live streamed by Donald Trump Jr. - shows his father, Ivanka and brother Eric geeing themselves up as they get ready to go on stage for the Save America March.

Trump Jr. hails the amassing crowd nearby as 'awesome patriots that are sick of the bulls**t' before panning the camera around to reveal girlfriend Kimberly Guilfoyle dancing to '80s pop song Gloria by the late singer Laura Branigan.

Inside a private marquee, the President can be seen watching his supporters intently on monitors, occasionally glancing down at his notes and chatting to aides. 

'Unfortunately there's a road in between the main crowd and the masses, I'd love to see them getting in closer because that would be pretty awesome, but this is pretty incredible,' Don Jr. says in the video that was posted to social media but has since been removed.

The party atmosphere is in stark contrast to the sickening scenes beamed across the globe hours later as Trump's supporters routed police and attacked Congress as it tried to certify Joe Biden's election win

'I think we are T-minus a couple of seconds here guys,' he adds excitedly, before introducing Trump's Chief of Staff Mark Meadows as an 'actual fighter, one of the few.'

Meadows responds with a grin and a thumbs up before Guilfoyle comes into shot, clenching her fist and urging: 'Have the courage to do the right thing, fight.'

Five people perished in the carnage, including a female rioter shot at close range deep inside the heart of the Capitol building and a cop who died later from his injuries.

Kathy Golik, who manages Branigan's legacy after she died in 2004, blasted the use of the song, tweeting: 'It’s absolutely appalling to hear ‘Gloria’ being played in the background of a widely-circulating video of Pres. Trump from yesterday, given the tragic, unsettling, & shameful happenings that occurred at the US Capitol.

'It’s very sad & upsetting to see Laura’s beautiful memory & legacy have any association w/ Pres. Trump & such a dark day in US history. 

'Neither Laura, nor her music, deserve any unwarranted fallout due to the actions of others.'

Moments after Don Jr. stopped filming Wednesday, Trump stood in front of the White House and told the crowds he would 'never concede' November's election.

His oldest son addressed the rally with his own expletive-laden speech, thanking attendees for 'being in this fight with us' and 'standing up to the bulls**t,' before taking aim at everyone from Democrats to transgender athletes.

Fox News cut away from its live feed of the event after his comments went to air uncensored.

Lara Trump, who claims her father will run for President again in 2014, added: 'Our family didn't get in this fight for just four years. We are in this fight to the bitter end.'

It wasn't until Thursday night, more than 24 hours after his supporters trashed the Capitol building and sent lawmakers scurrying for safety, that Trump released a recorded statement calling for 'healing and reconciliation.'

Trump announced Friday he will snub Joe Biden's inauguration ceremony on January 20th, while his remaining aides and allies described him as a 'total monster' and 'mad King George' as his presidency ends in chaos.

Trump isolated himself from his staff and the Republican Party, holed up in the Oval Office with a bunker mentality as aides pleaded with him to send a message of healing to the country in the aftermath of the MAGA mob storming Capitol Hill. 

He returned to Twitter Thursday night - after the social media network locked his account - with a call for 'peace' and 'unity' although no acknowledgment of his own role in whipping up the mob who stormed the Capitol, leaving a dead police officer and four dead of their own in their wake.

But on Friday morning, the peacemaking ended: he launched a tweet partly in all capitals to thank his supporters, calling them 'great American Patriots.' 

'The 75,000,000 great American Patriots who voted for me, AMERICA FIRST, and MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, will have a GIANT VOICE long into the future. They will not be disrespected or treated unfairly in any way, shape or form!!!,' he wrote.

And he announced, in a break with historical tradition, that he will snub his successor on Inauguration Day. 

'To all of those who have asked, I will not be going to the Inauguration on January 20th,' he declared.
