No Kings Three Is A Royal Success!

By Baxter

Happy No Kings Day! We cats went up the road to Glens Falls, New York, for their mid-morning protest, which jived better with our Saturday schedule. And we were not disappointed. Another good turnout, similar to October's, and we were amazed at the number of white guys in pickup trucks who drove by and honked at us in support. What's going on? Maybe they buy gas like the rest of us?

Numbers are still rolling in, so we'll post later with some analysis. The interwebs right now are estimating 7 million to 8 million, but that seems low to us. In the meantime, we'd have to say the turnout in specific locations like Minneapolis (200,000-plus) will be key. We also will be interested in numbers from some of the more contested states like Ohio, Georgia, and Iowa. Film at eleven!

Meanwhile, on the opposite side of the enthusiasm spectrum, CPAC is wrapping up a desultory, low-energy confab with lackluster speakers and no Trump. But they still bothered to take a poll for 2028, and it looks like Couch Fancier JD Vance, one of the least-liked politicians in the country, won with 53 percent. (Baby Marco trailed with 35 percent.) So what's going on, team? We hear rumors that Benedict Donald is leaning toward Rubio. We love this for them, and we cats PURR.
