Million MAGA March For Trump: A Report from DC

Last Saturday, the Million MAGA March For Trump drew hundreds of thousands of Americans to DC.  A report was published at the American Mind blogsite.  Our household was not able to attend, but this report by Mrs. Chris Flannery brought back vivid memories of our trip in 2009 for the Taxpayer March on DC.  Same sense of shared experiences and love of country.  It was orderly, patriotic, and fun.  Here’s a short extract.

Everyone was cheerful: smiling, laughing, and nodding to each other, giving one another thumbs up. All walks of life. All Americans that love their country. Hats were taken off and hands placed on hearts for the Pledge of Allegiance followed by the National Anthem. On the periphery some bad actors were always lurking (largely restrained by police presence), but here in Freedom Plaza the growing thousands became carefree, children ran and played, the elderly were given seats to rest, and everyone did his best to make those around him feel at home. All kinds of people from all over the country were gathered for what resembled a community Independence Day celebration. Maybe most striking, next to the shared love of country, was how kind, polite, and respectful the crowd of (what I am sure became I don’t know how many) hundreds of thousands was—all day long. “Excuse me.” “Pardon me.” “Mam, you dropped this.” “Please, go ahead.” “Can I help you with that?” “I see you are a veteran; thank you for serving our country.” 

Read the full report here.  I wish we could have been there.
