Outside of typical remarks from Donald Trump, JD Vance and Mike Johnson and a Fox News report, party stayed mum
Republican voices were mostly silent as No Kings rallies and marches against Trump administration policies unfurled on Saturday, many in the spirit of a street party that countered the “hate America” depiction advanced by senior members of the party.
Instead of provocation, there were marching bands, huge banners with “we the people” references to the US constitution, and protesters wearing inflatable costumes, particularly frogs, which have emerged as a sign of resistance.
It was the third mass mobilization since Trump’s return to the White House and came against the backdrop of a government shutdown that not only has closed federal programs and services but is testing the core balance of power, as an aggressive executive confronts Congress and the courts in ways that protest organizers warn are a slide toward authoritarianism.
I’m gonna bet it goes up. It did the last several times I saw early estimates for these events.
This IS an estimate you already read. Dude’s likely using Gemeni or ChatGPT for this data. Don’t trust it.
7m is what the organizers said but that’s probably including people who signed up and didn’t show up
Source: googled “no kings” and clicked abc news or something
But I showed up and didn’t sign up so who’s the real number?
Same I’m just being conservative (number wise, not politically) since there’s no 3rd party source yet
