> So many reporters here I just saw a reporter start interviewing someone but they turned out to be a reporter too

I thought this was a bit humorous lol

I hope a lack of turnout really gets under Trump's skin and depresses him into a muddy malaise.

No one cares anymore.. plus gas is expensive and tolls and parking. It’s also a Tuesday. It’s also a nice day

reminds me of when they tried to do a second Unite the Right rally and it was like a dozen proud boys being protected by two hundred cops from one hundred counter protestors as a ton of press watched on.

Reddit told me there was going to be a bunch of NYPD cops there supporting Trump, tho.

Awe poor orange pus face... and those PAID protestors commanded by that guy from the Bronx that tells people that if they go, he'll get them green cards...

It’s easier to scream “revolution” from the keyboard than it is to show up in NYC and face real consequences

Maybe they learn after all. Last time they answered his call, they got ratted out by friends and family and got dragged in front of a court.

Good.

But they're still falling for Trump's trap. He intentionally got the date wrong because then that will put the FBI, NYPD, and DOJ off guard when Bragg actually releases the verdict.

In which case, perhaps the media should stop covering those protests. I've seen far bigger protests at City Hall that struggled to get any press coverage.

What?

Trump got the date wrong because he doesn’t know when the indictment will drop. No one does except Bragg’s office, unless it leaks.

And an indictment isn’t really a “verdict,” it’s an indictment.

Trump isn’t playing 5D chess he’s just kind of an idiot

I heard there are actually thousands if not tens of thousands of patriots there protesting, but the fake news media is just lying about the numbers like they always do. Any photos showing the lack of protestors are actually edited personally by George Soros. /s

I also think the fact that people actually got prosecuted for 1/6 has his supporters second guessing whether it’s worth going to jail for this guy (who definitely doesn’t care about them - or anyone besides himself for that matter).

Wow

You went from someone simply pointing that no one showed up to this protest, there's no momentum and it's not going anywhere to fully calling that person Proud Boy and Nazi Sympathizer with 0 other reasons.

Quick glance at the redditor post history and you clearly see they support LGQBT and seems to lean liberal.

immediate name calling, and antagonizing is exactly the toxicity that is the problem. You make things worst.

So this sub is all up in arms that the protest better not happen.

Then it doesn’t happen, because no one really gives a fuck, and you still have shit to say. Incredible.

Sounds good to me. Biggest block party ever is definitely warranted IMHO if he actually gets convicted and goes to jail. As a convicted felon he'd be barred from office and that would be an awesome reason to celebrate.

Democrat or Republican I don't get why anyone would think of supporting Trump now. The man is clearly mentally ill and unfit for office. Only his most diehard, fascist followers are left now.

Even if he is not convicted on this he will not land in the Oval Office again. This whole farce of a presidential campaign is just to line his pockets one more time and to puff up his ego. No way he will get the nomination. The Republicans have got to know what a disaster it would be.

They could run a donkey up against Trump and the donkey would win. Except for his diehard followers, and they are fewer by the day, everybody loathes him and thinks he's crazy. Nobody wants him near the nuclear launch codes at this point. The very thought is just alarming.

It's Noo Yawk Citay. Trump and his bullshit are old news here. Have been for decades too.

I'm sure his shenanigans still play in some red state, racist, ignorant, broke ass, cousin fucker areas. and even there it's getting stale.

Reminds me of the first day of early voting in the mayoral elections: Kathryn Garcia came to my polling site to vote. There were more reporters covering her voting than there were voters.

Around 13 years ago, they was a westboro baptist church protest in front of Brooklyn technical high school and there were far more counter protestors and police than there were ppl from the church

It’s sad to see how an obsolete corrupt politician still lives rent free in people’s head. Meanwhile we have our own politicians in NYC, lowering our quality of life, yet they never seem to get criticized. The masses are too easily distracted.

Shocking

There's so much gassing up about a hoard of right wingers descending, like the "planned day of hate"; it turns out to be a fucking hoax; and there's zero reflection about any of it or what the motivations of those promoting these ideas might be.

But summer 2020 vandalism and arson stretching from Union Square into Chinatown (including residential blocks), Fordham Road, all over the city? Probably millions of dollars of damage in Midtown?

Just "burning the Target", as some goblin described it here...140 cities, one Target each. I guess. "Peaceful but fiery" and virtuous. You still see the remnants walking through Lower Manhattan, all the disgusting graffiti.

Fuck the media and fuck the political agents who own the coasts to an absurd extent, who mysteriously dominate every election from the top to the bottom of the ballot, even when they run candidates that would probably be better suited to a shitty NGO internship (or a mental ward) than public office...but still have to gaslight about a big scary oppositional bogeyman in blue America to leverage power. It's disgusting. It's not even QAnon levels of conspiratory, it's just openly mendacious and stupid.
