FWIW, I'd be shocked if there were more than a dozen Trump voters in that crowd. We were quite united in our cheers against T and the oligarchy.
Colorado is a pretty purple state.
Lots of us are ready to act (clearly), and just need some organization.

There are reports of a handful of MAGAs in the crowd, but no counter-protests. The crowd was solidly supportive of Bernie & AOC's message: fight the oligarchy, hold your elected officials accountable, elect those who will fight the Rs.
The energy was great; glad I went!

With pretty short notice, and not a ton of publicity -- in addition to beginning during normal work hours -- I think it's a pretty good showing.

The rally? Mar 21! The energy was great!

Reading all the comments this morning, I'm even more glad I went. I knew I wouldn't get anywhere near the podium, but I wanted to be one more person in the numbers.
Glad to have been part of a glimmer of hope.

Funny, nobody offered me a bus ride. We found a parking place on SpotHero :)

That was the number that went through the security point. There were thousands more (I think about 6k) who were outside the fenced area. We walked about half a mile, trying to find the end of the line, and decided to grab a spot on the fence tat has a decent sightline.

I think they said it was 34,000 through the security point; there were thousands of us who chose to find a good spot outside the fence, as we had no idea where the back of the line actually was.
Was really uplifting to be among so many people who feel the same as me.

So frustrating when they do this.

JFC, I didn't know he was even in the room, until I saw this angle.
That makes a hideous exchange even worse (if that's possible).

I am embarrassed, disgusted, and positively livid. This "man" does not represent who I am, who the people of my country are (most of them, anyway), and he has no business in that office.
I cannot apologize profusely enough to the rest of the world, on our behalf.

Scared, angry, frazzled, exhausted, paralyzed, despondent.

Okay, fine. We’ll go with scangry.

I needed to be reminded that the mountains are still there.

This view is very similar to “my happy place” that I try to visualize when I need to ground myself, amidst all the chaos around me.

I felt my shoulders relax a little….

My eyes can't roll far enough back in my head for his antics. 🙄
