Saturday provided a split-screen moment that illuminated how much the dominance Donald Trump craves is eluding his grasp while the resistance to his presidency grows in strength.
Two statistics, or estimates. You talked about an expectation of 200K sycophants at Donnie's birthday party, but the AP said there were "large gaps" between viewers. One person I heard talked about "tens" of people, and the video scan I saw suggested no more than about 50.
You said a couple of times that there were "hundreds" of "No Kings" rallies. Estimates I have consistently read say there were 2000.
Other than that, it was a great post. Donnie does not, of course, tolerate this level of embarrassment, and he'll try to punish someone. I wonder if the small number of Congresspeople who bothered to attend his event means they're on the verge of rebelling in substantive Congressional ways.
Love you.
