Following the Saturday event in the Capitol, the Trump administration was quick to tout what appeared to be inflated attendance numbers and brand the “No Kings” protest, which drew millions across events in some 2,000 cities and small towns across the country, as an “
utter failure with minuscule attendance.”
“Despite the threat of rain, over 250,000 patriots showed up to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army,” White House communications director Steven Cheung wrote on X. “God Bless the USA!”
Outside estimates, meanwhile,
suggest there were far fewer in attendance than the 200,000 people expected to view the parade, which coincided with the president’s birthday.
“When the day came, it was something closer to a medium-sized town’s July 4th celebration,”
The Independent’s Richard Hall
wrote in his dispatch from the event. “There were families, picnics, bad weather and
small crowds.”
‘No Kings’ protests were estimated to have drawn more than one percent of U.S. population
