On Thursday, White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany predicted that the "Million MAGA March" in support of President Donald Trump will have a turnout that is "quite large."
The rally is set to take place in Washington, D.C. on Saturday. Which is exactly one week since the media projected that Joe Biden was the winner of the presidential election.
"I think it's going to be quite large, um, from what I'm hearing, don't have an estimate for you," McEnany said.
The Hill reports:
Disparate groups are reportedly preparing for the event, with one gathering scheduled to take place at the Freedom Plaza in downtown Washington, D.C., at 12 p.m. with a march to the Supreme Court at 2 p.m.
A counterprotest called "F--- MAGA" has also been planned by All Out DC to happen nearby.
The groups involved include Stop the Steal DC, the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers, according to a report by DCist.
Politico reported that groups such as Women for America First, the Right Side Broadcasting Network and Infowars’s Owen Schroyer are among those promoting or organizing events. It also reported that a prominent white nationalist who leads the Groyper Army group is setting up rallies in swing states and in Washington, D.C., on Saturday.
The promises of large crowds at rallies by these groups have sometimes fizzled out. Some groups are saying hundreds or thousands could show up Saturday.
“People want to show up and have their voice heard. I mean this president — look, he got more votes than any Republican nominee, or for president I should say, in the history of our country and indeed he got more Republican votes as any nominee in the history of our party back in 2016,” McEnany said.
