Tristan Sites, a Lincoln resident who identified himself as one of the organizers of the Springfield rally, said the protest was not simply about Donald Trump. “We have no kings in this country,” Sites said. “This isn’t about Trump as a person anymore. This is about the fact that Trump and his people are currently trying to systematically destroy the government that makes us allowed to be free in this country.”
I find it funny that these Leftists protestors are protesting to other Leftists. Do they actually think that anything will change as they protest to their compatriots?

There are still some extreme leftist diehards out there, but how many? This article didn’t estimate the number at this event, so I’m guessing it was very low. The photographer had to be careful not to zoom out too far or we’d all know. These numbers will dwindle even further as they get less and less attention. Hopefully Trump can continue to stay the course, put up some wins and forever banish these idiots back to mom’s basement.
It’s significant, IMO, only because they represent the problem the Dems have. People like this will stick to their radical ways no matter how many elections they lose and no matter what polls say (outside of IL, that is). At least a few of the national Dem strategists recognize that they must move to the center, but the problem is their base doesn’t want to hear that.
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
