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.

Sorry about that, let me know what you don’t understand and I’ll be happy to explain it to you.
It’s not true. Nobody outside of leftist groups or media care about this. It’s not out of trying to maintain fear or concern about erosion.
There’s nothing that comes from these protests anymore. We’re in a digital world. These analog solutions don’t work anymore. You need digital solutions. You need a network and digital presence to spread anything you do like this. But we all removed ourselves from any digital spaces so there’s no need for the right to prevent anything. They know this even 24hrs ago. We’re all back to work. A lot of people didn’t even realize this was going on.
Sounds like you raised a better man than yourself.
