Wearing a black shirt with flowers and FDT in the upper right. And I'm quite tall.

Some pics of the crowd, which was pretty good. Hundreds, for sure. I got permission from the two people where I just took their pics

I have no idea how many - I was so happy with the turnout. The cars honking support was great too. And loved the booing at the cybertruck.

Yeah, it was a very nice turnout, esp. considering where this is (as I call it, Provo, South). Lotta pissed off people (though everyone was of course jovial with one another), and lots of support from cars passing by! T'was very heartening to see

Also, loved all the handmade signs. NOBODY can all this 'astro-turfed' or say some nefarious entity put everyone up to this. THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE

I used to love going to rallies like this, before I became disabled. 🇺🇸
