Thousands of supporters of President Trump protesting the outcome of the election rallied in Washington on Saturday, earning a brief drive-by visit from the president himself, in a day of orderly demonstrations that devolved into violence as the night wore on.⁣

The police made 20 arrests, including 4 on gun charges, as counterprotesters and Trump supporters clashed in the streets throughout the evening. One man was stabbed, but his condition was unknown as of late Saturday.⁣

For most of the day, however, the crowds were under control, if boisterous, and many greeted the president with applause and cheers when he passed by in his motorcade, waving through the window as he headed to his private golf club in Sterling, Virginia.⁣

By early afternoon, demonstrators had fanned out for several blocks around Freedom Plaza.⁣

On Twitter, the White House press secretary, Kayleigh McEnany, offered an exaggerated assessment of the event, called the Million MAGA March, claiming that a million supporters had turned out.⁣

Accounts on the ground suggested that her estimate was wildly inflated.⁣

“It’s not like the Fourth of July or anything,” said a police officer who was stationed near Freedom Plaza at 13th and G Streets. He declined to give his name because he was not authorized to speak to the news media. “But yeah,” he added, “there’s a crowd down there.”⁣

Even if short on numbers, the crowd was not lacking in enthusiasm for the president or outrage over the grievances he has raised over the past 4 years. Tap the link in our bio to read more. Photos by @stefani_reynolds and @kenny_holston.
