JEFFERSON CITY - People gathered at the State Capitol Saturday afternoon to "March 4 Trump." The march supported President Trump and Vice President Mike Pence.

Overpasses for America Missouri and Show-Me Trump Missouri hosted the event.

Our mission is a mission of unity to support Donald Trump, our president, and to reach across the aisle to help others understand the positive aspects of our future, said Karen Trifonoff, one of the events coordinators.

Trifinoff said she has done similar marches in the past, but none to this extent.

Anita Record, one of the marchers, said she just wants other people to "give the man a chance."

"We're tired of being the silent majority, and were not going to be the silent majority anymore, she said.

1. Any numbers?

[Kingofalldems]

7. 1.5 million.

[jmowreader]

10. Rough estimate? Hard to say...

150 to 200 tops.

11. The newscasters said, "Hundreds." The video showed lots of empty space.

But they filmed it from a deceptive angle, from enough distance you could see the truth of open ground and few marchers. If they had filmed it from Trump's preferred angle, right up next to the marchers, so you couldn't see past them, he could claim it was a bigger crowd than the Superbowl, when in reality it was a smaller crowd than the day after the Superbowl.

2. You Can See The Crowd at the Link

I've seen bigger crowds at a Little League baseball game.
Hell it looks like there are more people on the sidelines for each team during an NFL game!

3. It must be a million and a half people, at least. What's the capitol of Missouri?

Oh wait, it's there. It would have been two million if the paid out of state demonstrators hadn't gone to St. Louis.

4. Hope they are asking him to stop the lying.

5. were they 'goose-stepping'?

6. "We're tired of being the silent majority, and were not going to be the silent majority anymore.

We're going to be the loud, ignorant minority, just like we've always been.

8. Looks like defacto apartheid.

Fender benders get larger crowds than this.

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

9. They are the loud minority. n/t

[WhiteTara]

12. Maybe 200 people at most.

[davsand]

13. Tens of supporters showed up!

We had more people than that turn up on the fly to protest the Muslim ban last time--and we are not a capitol. Good to know the crazies in Missouri at least have the sense to stand down.
