That’s a good start. That about matches the die hard never change MAGA voters.

And Trump doesn’t care. He continues to do exactly what he wants. We need a different kind of protest.

The only violence that did occur was when the far-right radicalized activists showed up.

Just 89 million* people too complacent about what’s going on to do anything about it. That’s how we ended up where we are, people just letting life happen to them.

Was there a bigger violent protest? Seems like that qualifier isn’t doing much.

Great turnout! Just over 2% of the entire US population. It keeps growing in size and in the number of issues the crowds are protesting for. Looking forward to No Kings 4.
That said I heard we have a general strike on May 1? Any details yet?

The history books need to reflect that this president was the worst president in modern history.

Hey Fox News, are all of these people paid protestors?

Our protest are always positive and creative, I love standing with other resisters for our democracy. I am a 78 year old woman, I have been yelled at in such vile and hateful ways by men driving by at every Trump protest. This president has brought out so much hate, I am shocked to live in this world he has created. It breaks my heart. I am sad for our children’s future, greed has destroyed everything.

Barely heard a peep about it all day. Media’s doing a great job of keeping quiet.

We must unite.
They want us dumb, hungry , tired angry, scared and/or distracted so that we will put up little resistance when full autocracy is tried.
WE MUST STOP THEM THIS MIDTERM ELECTION: November 2026. It is the last democratic chance out of this mess.
Vote, donate, volunteer, door knock/canvass, phone bank, write postcards.
Get in touch with your local community organizations or democratic headquarters now to get involved. Here are some good organizations mobilizing people:
Watching CBS Sunday Morning (yes I know) and they said attendance was “thousands.” Technically correct I suppose.

That’s honestly very disappointing. I was hoping for at least 10 million, given how bad things are.

I think people seriously believe that the Selma and Montgomery marches happened in a vacuum. That MLK Jr. woke up one day, unknown to anyone, and somehow rallied tens of thousands of people overnight. It took nearly two years of planning and preparation to get their movement to be able to do those three marches.
We have this terrible habit of wanting to look back at history and copy and paste it exactly into modern times. They didn’t have a captured media, they didnt have a surveillance state, the Supreme Court wasn’t at the whim of the president. That doesn’t mean we should give up, but we need to stop pretending this is going to look the same as other movements. We must adapt our expectations and stop complaining that protests don’t mean anything. It’s about organizing and meeting your community. Good god people, stop with the doomerism.

So there was a larger, violent, protest? Is that what they’re saying?

and The New York Times downplays the turn out today.

I was wondering if there was gonna be any push back in bigger cities or not. Anyone know if they went smoothly or did ice show up to magically find people to “deport”
