Related: About this forumAt Least 100 People to Walk on Sidewalk for Trump
Were not sure why this is news, but we got a kick out of this story from Oscar Contreras at Denver7:
A group of northern Colorado residents will take to the streets Saturday in support of President Donald Trump and his stated goal to Make America Great Again.'
So far, 181 people have indicated theyll be participating in the I Stand with Trump Make America Great Again rally scheduled to take place on July 28 on the southeast corner of Highway 34 and Lake Loveland, across from Dwayne Webster Veterans Park.
There will be no speakers or planned agenda. Instead, the event will be utilizing the First Amendment right to demonstrate on public sidewalks, said rally organizer David Huntwork. [Pols emphasis]

Well be curious to see how many folks actually take to the sidewalks for Trump on Saturday, since the number of people who show up is never anywhere close to the number of people who sign up for something like this. Republican rallies in Colorado havent tended to do all that well anyway, even with the lure of free food.
Saturdays MAGA rally in Loveland stands in stark contrast to events like the Womens March in Denver in January 2017 (and again in 2018), which drew hundreds of thousands of people to Civic Center Park. The MAGA rally wont even come close to the crowd of thousands that attended the March for Our Lives rally in March 2018, or the RedForEd day in April.

It looks like they're going to need at leat 20-30 Porta-Potties for a crowd this size!

(117,584 posts)2. I suspect that they probably needed a few mechanics on standby
due to the disproportionate share of Trump's supporters who require electric carts to get around (just like Trump).
