Literally all of this is false. 7 million people turned out, probably the largest single-day protest in American history. And at least in DC, what I saw was a hugely representative crowd, mostly with (often very clever) homemade signs.
Trump on No Kings: "It's a joke. I looked at the people. They are not representative of this country. And I looked at all the brand new signs I guess paid for by Soros and other radical left lunatics. We're checking it out. The demonstrations were very small. And the people were whacked out."
