Chants, shouts, scuffles as pro-Trump Capitol rally draws counterprotesters in Minnesota

A rally this weekend, however, aimed to show support for the president.

“We’re all he has”. “But my God, can you think of a better fight?”

State Sen. Ron Rabin, a Harnett County Republican and an early Trump supporter, said the “mainstream media”, “the entertainment colony”, academics at elite universities and the United Nations are working against Trump. “We resist his misogynistic, xenophobic, and climate denial policies to name a few”, organizers of this rally said in a press release.

It was one of several similar rallies being held throughout the country, as supporters showed their pride for President Trump’s actions despite criticism from opponents.

President Donald Trump supporters’ devotion to him is not about “Donald Trump”, according to a leader of a grassroots group formed to help the NY businessman and former reality television personality win last year’s presidential election.

“We are no longer the silent majority”.

“Donald Trump is not going to the White House Correspondents Dinner, so a group of us only thought it would be fair if we started a competing dinner”, Hoft added.

Tension mounted in Berkeley as the city prepared for a “March 4 Trump” rally, which, not surprisingly, also drew protesters. “No KKK. No fascist USA” and held signs with messages like “Your vote was a hate crime”.

“There are some changes that need to be made”.

Asked if police had any plans to prevent violence between different factions of demonstrators on Saturday, Frankel said, “The department is prepared for a number of different contingencies”. But he said “professional agitators” have been ruining America. A local organizer, 61-year-old Patty Collins, of Indianapolis, said Trump’s critics “aren’t giving him a chance”.

Backers of President Donald Trump were scheduled to hold rallies across the country Saturday.

One man who was a Trump supporter was beaten in the face and sprayed with Mace.

Security guards herded the protesters onto a staircase, but small skirmishes with rally-goers followed nonetheless.

Hundreds of supporters of President Trump stand on the steps of the Missouri state capital building on Saturday.

Wielding American flags, “Make America Great Again” hats, supporters marched around the state’s capital, sharing with the Post-Dispatch what they’ve liked about the Trump presidency thus far.
