The GOP talking point…
Only “old” people showed up at No Kings!

Damn right we showed up!
We show up at the Ballot Box too!

How we have assembled since April:

In April: 3 million of us protested at 1,300 Hands Off! events.

In June: 5 million of us protested at 2,100 No Kings events.

And yesterday: 7 million of us protested at more than 2,700 No Kings events.

We have the momentum, and we can't afford to slow down...

Tactical frivolity. Laughtivism. Ridicule. Don't let them take your joy or your power.

Humor is kryptonite to Trump, so let's have fun tomorrow!

March, dance, sing, and laugh at your local No Kings peaceful protest on Saturday. #NoKings
