    Here’s the thing, they weren’t all leftists. That was the beauty of the “No Kings” moniker, it encompassed all of the people pissed off. That includes a shit ton of republicans.

    As she and the other leftists marched, a young man, bare chested and wearing a bucket hat, approached a demonstration marshal. He seemed confused. He wanted to know where the protest for the opposite point of view could be found.

      In absolute numbers, maybe, but in proportional terms, I’d caution against thinking like that. The vast majority of Republicans remain in lockstep behind their Dear Leader.

        The amount of republicans is actually dwindling and don’t forget they cheated. He said he was going to cheat, Musk said they cheated, and he’s projecting about the democrats that they cheated. I believe them.
