Well, I’m happy to report… no, I’m VERY happy to report that HUGE crowds of people turned out for the No Kings Day protests. In city after city all across this once-great nation, thousands of people came out to protest him. You can search on ‘No Kings Day’ in YouTube and then watch video after video of people in one city after another carrying signs and singing songs and decrying the guy.
By and large, the marches were peaceful events. I’m sure some bonehead caused some problem someplace. All told, there were thousands, maybe millions, of people out there. There has to be a weakest link. But for the most part, the protests were peaceful. LA is an obvious exception but Donny inflamed LA for days before THIS day. I’ve got 47 down as the instigator of violence in LA.
Santa Rosa put out quite the crowd. People lined Farmers Lane from one end to the other on both sides – and Farmers Lane is one of the longer streets in Santa Rosa. It was quite heartening to see. Just for fun, I searched on ‘No Kings Day counter protests.’ I literally got nothing. No, I got a long list of the No Kings Day protests, including protests in other countries. No counter protests to be found.
I’m even happier to report that his stupid and ridiculously expensive, very wasteful, very damaging, tin-pot dictator military parade drew, what, hundreds? A couple of thousand? I don’t know, but it was a very sparsely attended event. I’m pretty sure more people came out for the No Kings Day march in Washington DC before his big, stupid parade, than attended his big, stupid parade. So he just sat there, pouting. At one point, it honestly looked very much like he was going to cry.
There were rows and rows of bleachers set up, giving you an idea of what his expectation was. He thought this was something people were really going to want to see, so he put up plenty of seating. That was a mistake. Donny forgot his stagecraft. He KNOWS to group the few attendees closely together to make it look like a larger crowd than it is. He does that at his rallies all the time. But he didn’t do it this time. Clearly, he hoped for more people. But more people were out protesting him than supporting him. Good.
They should have set up just one bleacher section. Then everyone who came would have grouped up in the one stand and the bleachers would have appeared, I don’t know, maybe nearly full. By allowing them to spread out, the whole world got to see exactly how unpopular the stupid thing was – AND how unpopular the stupid thing is. Mostly, the people who showed up, were ordered to show up. The vast majority of people who had a choice, chose to NOT attend.
Of course, MAGA media will report the exact opposite. They’ll claim the marches were flops and the parade was a huge success. Then they’ll move on to something else as quickly as possible. I’m guessing MAGA media will be all in a tither about some culture war crisis today. They’ll want to get the topic off the failed parade and whip the devoted into a frenzy on something else. Change the subject.
The Felon, himself, will start insisting that the crowd at his stupid, ego-fluffing parade was as large as the vast crowd at his inaugurations, which may be true, considering the small number of people that showed up for those. I think the tiny crowd at his first inaugural is still the largest crowd he has ever drawn.
Honestly, I’m a little worried about how he might react to his parade failure today. He doesn’t cope well with failure. Because the whole world got to witness his humiliation, he might well order increased ICE raids or some such. It’s what he does. He meets failure with cruelty. Since he fails most of the time, he’s cruel most of the time.
That part sucks and I empathize with whomever he chooses to victimize in an attempt to make himself feel better, but for the moment, I’m going to enjoy the outcome. No More Kings whipped the ass of his ‘Look-at-me’ military parade. In America, that’s how it should be…

As we all know by now, there’s a rule of thumb that seems to apply to Team Evil so perfectly, so completely, it might well be deemed an axiom in the near future. The rule? ‘From Team 47, EVERY accusation is an admission.’ It just seems to be always true. It’s almost mind-boggling how often it rings true.
For example, during the campaign, Donny said that Kamala would crash the economy. She didn’t get the chance – but he did. It seems to be his goal to destroy the American dollar. He said Kamala would take away your freedom. But it’s not Kamala sending in marines in an effort to deny Americans freedom of speech, it’s Donny. There are myriad more examples and I’m sure you can come up with a few of your own without much (any) effort.
But think about this: ‘From Team 47, EVERY accusation is an admission.’ During the campaign, The Felon threatened that Kamala would start World War III. “The world is in more danger than it’s ever been because of the power of weaponry,” 47 said, “and I will be the only one—I can say this with great surety—I will prevent World War III.”
So…um…holy crap! Have you SEEN the way he’s “preventing” World War III? Everywhere this clown goes, he brings aggression, ignorance, and violence – an extremely dangerous combination. Not only has he NOT stopped conflicts on Day One because of how easy it would be – promise made, promise broken – he has NEW conflicts boiling. ‘Every accusation is an admission’ meets ‘I will prevent World War III.’ This is going to get ugly, isn’t it?
