10 years of obsession about what Trump supporters think & care about has warped our understanding of their size & popularity: Trump is historically unpopular, pro-democracy supporters far outnumber the object of Corporate Media’s love. Time to hear more from majority of US.
The Tea Party protests in April 2009 had about a third of a million people involved, and the political media treated it like a game changer for the Obama presidency.
The No Kings rallies were AT LEAST ten times bigger than the Tea Party protests. Will the press keep pretending Trump is popular?

Based on crowd-sourced records of No Kings Day event turnout, and extrapolating for the cities where we don't have data yet, it looks like roughly 4-6 million people protested Trump across the U.S. yesterday. That's nearly 2% of the U.S. pop!
