DC preparing for pro-Trump rallies planned for Saturday

Two rallies are scheduled this weekend in D.C. to show support for President Donald Trump.
Author: Khalida Volou (WUSA9), Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Supporters of the President are planning rallies in D.C. on Saturday as the country waits for the Trump campaign to submit evidence for unfounded claims of voter fraud.

One of the rallies is called the "Million Maga March," according to the group on Twitter. And another is called, "Stop The Steal." Both of the planned rallies will be held on Saturday starting at noon.


According to the Stop The Steal flyer posted on Twitter, the event is calling on supporters to meet at Freedom Plaza. It is unknown where demonstrators of the Million Maga March are expected to meet.

It appears these rallies are separate events and are not planned by the same organizers.

I read today that 80% believe Biden is the President elect.
I have to wonder how many will be at these rallies.

If the media would turn its cameras onto adults instead of the playground, these silly things wouldn't even happen. It's all done just to keep trump in the spotlight.

Of COURSE they will give this top of the news coverage.

The media loves the extra advertising money they are getting this election.

If it's a typical Rethug rally, there will be one hell of a mess and hangover for D.C. ......

These people can't plan their way out of a paper bag and always expect others to clean up after them......

Republicans are doing this entirely to harden their base's distrust of our electoral system.

This rally couldn't be closer to the truth.

For some reason "Stop the Steal" tweet image won't copy to this spot. Hmmm! Anyway, I found that notice about as obvious as you could get.

Trump is holding these rallies to build the family's bank account. Never forget that. I would imagine Lara was afraid of losing her $15K/week salary, for one example. Chances are, the family will eventually be charged with embezzlement of campaign funds. Their history supports that claim.

I never noticed if anyone was ever charged with taking the $40K from the inauguration fund. Did I miss it?

I did not hear of ongoing media coverage happening...Cell phone internet was actually a new tool then....not widely used...I would call family, friends to get updates...the coverage was weak, minimized the crowd and impact of the March...

On the ground media was present...exciting but I just didn't sense the focus was well served for the March.

Almost 60-degrees and sunny... they'll be maskless and shouting and crowded together. These nuts and their loved-ones will soon find that there's no more room at the ICU. Maybe they'll get some comfort from dying at home surrounded by relatives, rather than being isolated and dying alone in hospital.
