A "No Kings" march in front of Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort resulted in a mass of protesters at odds with the president and just a handful of MAGA counter-protesters.
According to a report from the Washington Post, there was a huge turnout in West Palm Beach for the nationwide "No Kings" mobilization against the president, with over 2,000 marches planned across the country.
Despite weeks of notice, supporters of the president were no-shows outside the resort that Trump and his family call home.
Speaking with the Post's Lori Rocza, Gabriel Renfroe, 56, expressed dismay at the lack of pro-Trump counter-protesters.
“I’m kind of surprised I’m the only one here. I came because I love President Trump, and I want to show support,” he stated while admitting he drove over 80 miles to support the president.
He graciously added, "This all seems peaceful. They’re allowed to say what they want as long as it stays peaceful. That’s what America is about.”
As a side-note, Rocza reported, "Another Trump supporter asked a police officer whether he could engage with the protesters and was told he could yell at them if he wanted. When the man immediately began shouting expletives, the officer warned him not to try to incite an incident.The man moved on quietly."
