Dear AI: What was the largest Tea Party protest?

The largest Tea Party protest event was the Taxpayer March on Washington on September 12, 2009, where tens of thousands to over 200,000+ protesters gathered at the U.S. Capitol, with organizers claiming higher numbers. Earlier, on April 15, 2009, a nationwide, multi-city demonstration saw over 300,000 to over 500,000 total participants across 300+ cities.

Remember how we heard righties tell us about that huge turnout? Five hundred thousand Americans (some of them claimed a million) HAD SPOKEN, and such a large turnout obviously represented the true heart of America.

Saturday, an order of magnitude larger number of people turned out to protest (8 million+).


It’s fun to watch the same righties backpedal and minimize that much larger representation of American opinion.

They're still resorting to their default "Most of those protesters are bought and paid for by George Soros."

I find it difficult to believe that they agree with the nonsense they spout.

Then again, I tend to believe that everyone possesses at least a shred of rationality.

My bad.

At least Soros is a US citizen.

The Trump administration has been bought by foreigners - Israelis, the Saudi royal family, and Putin.
