Have you seen an anime called Legend of Galactic Heroes?
It's a sci fi about a space war between a republic and monarchy. It's main theme imo is that there's no perfect system of government. Liberalism and authoritarianism, democracy and dictatorship have their strengths and weaknesses.
Spoiler alert
There's a part when an admiral on the republic side Yang Wenli gets an order from the president to surrender at the decisive battle and let the monarchy win. This is because the civilian leadership is corrupt and cowardly and worked out a backroom deal with the monarchy to keep their jobs and wealth under an occupation government.
Yang's advisors are outraged and try to convince him to disobey the president, win the battle and become a temporary military dictator to clean up the corrupt civilian leadership.
Yang declines and says (paraphrasing) "This is an ideological war. It's a contest to see which system of government has the right to rule humanity. On our side, voters have a responsibility to elect strong and honest leaders. Instead they've been bought off by bread and circuses and voted in weasels like our president and congress. If I disobey the democratically elected president and seize power for myself, it becomes a war between two autocracies and becomes meaningless. By following our president's orders I'm carrying out the will of the people. I believe it's my duty to history and future generations to show this is what happens to a republic when voters choose bread and circuses over moral integrity from their leaders."
I'd love to go unfortunately im english and im in the UK believe me if washington was a little closer to home i would be there believe me. if travel rules change again depending on this apparent mutated strain we have... i know i have no say in your elections but your elections effect us.. id give anything to go to a maga rally... i will make it over the pond again soon..
We need atleast a million. Ive been there with 350k about 20 years ago. The highways were so backed up, we all got of the bus on the highway and walked 7 miles to get there.
Trump personally invited ppl so it could be more. Also non americans are joining too I'm optimistic but also realistic with my expectations. 200k - 1m would be about the amount of ppl that realistically would show up in middle of the week. People are not scared of riots because the proud boys easily protected them last time. Most people just have work.
I'm hoping the traffic is clogged so bad coming in that the roads become a Trump parade as far out as Missouri. Don't let me down! I like 5 million as a bet and will be super disappointed with a measly 150k.
That's awesome dude. Proud of you for flying from Canada! We love your support!
As a fellow Canadian...... I doubt it.
The only non-cucked politician I know of is Maxime Bernier and he lost his seat in Parliament last election.

Like it or not, if America falls, the free world falls too. So we need more "selfish" people like you to fly over here!
Wow. This gives me hope.
Wish i could go just to feel the pure energy and atmosphere of the movement first hand
Why can't you go? I mean how can you expect 3.5 million people to show up if everyone has an excuse?
I don't mean that in an offensive way, just curious.

Ohh gotcha. You're excused but we appreciate your support from afar.
Pump
Those
Numbers
Up

I imagine we will see the biggest red wave yet!!! His twitter video on the stimulus surely converted a few soy bitches
I hope millions show up!
2 million +
That's it?
Wasn't it around 1m for the first stop the steal rally? Trump didnt invite 89m to that one either.
I say 1.5m at least least. The city will be flooded
I think stop the steal was like 200k or something like that. I can't confirm though. Maybe someone who has sources can update us on this?
200k maybe more or less
Sadly I think this is a more accurate guess. Most people will have an excuse to why they won't go.

Woodstock was 400k, right? So if we could get a size that big, I'd be happy.
I'll say 2.2 million.
Brutal truth.
I'm hoping the traffic is clogged so bad coming in that the roads become a Trump parade as far out as Missouri. Don't let me down! I like 5 million as a bet and will be super disappointed with a measly 150k.
I want 5 million too but we should keep our expectations low so we won't be disappointed later.
Did you run those numbers through Dominion?
