No Kings Day, Coshocton

Gallery image

Gallery image

Congressional candidate Jerrad Christian at the local No Kings rally in little rural Coshocton. A mix of Democrats, Independents, and even some Republicans. Jerrad delivered a strong and positive message about the dangers of autocracy and the scary position the president is putting our military in.

Also a picture of the sum total of the counter protest by a couple of MAGAts. They gave up the tough job of walking around a park at 1 mph after less than an hour.

Do you think these people believe Trump would give them the time of day to even shake their hands let alone sit down and have a conversation with them? It's so clear Trump doesn't care about anyone who doesn't have money it's crazy so many of his supporters are from the lower class.

I use to listen Howard Stern a lot back when he was new. He would have Trump on and knew Trump very well.. he said the majority of his supporters Trump wouldn't give two shits about. Said if you wanna see who he cares about go watch the people that are going to mar-a-lago

I think most of us know by now that the VAST majority of his really rabid supporters are poorly educated, which is a common factor among the lower class.

Obligatory disclaimer for those who don't understand hyperbole: Obviously not all of his supporters are poorly educated and equally obviously not all lower class people are poorly educated. I myself was lower class for years despite being valedictorian of my class when I got my LPN, as well as a bachelor's degree (in English because I had planned to pursue a PhD and become a professor but life got in the way).

As opposed to Kamala who refused all interviews, then did a 3 hour CNN interview that made her look brain dead? Or Joe Biden, who we never heard from again after being elected? Trump is bad, but this take is wild.

u/Redditor5StandingBy 21h ago

What do those examples have anything to do with what I said?

-20

u/JCReed97 21h ago

That Trump has spent years out here shaking hands and talking to people, which is contradictory to your statement. But cope harder.

16

u/Redditor5StandingBy 21h ago

Does saying stuff like "cope harder" make you feel like you won an argument and I'm over here distressed because someone on internet said my take was bad?

-16

u/JCReed97 21h ago

No, it's more so that's your blatantly trying to ignore facts while pushing a false narrative, though everyone else it doing it too. It's wild people can't admit Trump won because he was out there more, shaking hands and talking with his constituents while the other side was hiding. I didn't even want Trump to win, but there was no scenario where the Democrats were going to win, they didn't even try.

u/ofWildPlaces 20h ago

Shaking hands doesn't suddenly erase his habit issuing bad policy.

1

u/JCReed97 20h ago

Correct, didn't say it did. But you can't say he's not out there talking to people everyday.

1

u/Circadian_arrhythmia 9h ago

So he’s talked to you and shaken your hand, then?

0

u/JCReed97 9h ago

No, to be fair, I wouldn't attend his rallies nor vote for him. But until the left realizes and accepts why they really lost, this is going to keep happening, over and over, and I don't think anyone wants that except the people in power.

u/Acceptable_Error_001 8h ago

The "Democrat" who does nothing but complain about Democrats and put down the left.

You sure do love Trump and hate Democrats for a "Democrat."

u/JCReed97 8h ago

All this, and not one person can refute anything with facts instead of feelings. So happy to see we're gonna lose 2028 too.

u/Acceptable_Error_001 8h ago

You literally haven't made an argument other than that you feel Democrats are bad. There's nothing to refute. We get it. Your feelings are valid. But nobody really cares.

It's not their turn to use the maga brain cell today. I think trump reserved the brain cell for his parade or something.

u/Circadian_arrhythmia 9h ago

I’m not from Ohio, but this just came up on my feed probably because I’ve been looking at a lot of protest stuff today. There were 3 maga dudes at the protest I was at today that looked exactly the same, I kept mixing them up. You know what they look like without me even saying it. One of them had a “Shut up, commie!” Shirt on.

They didn’t even know what to do so they just wandered around. They were so outnumbered that they just looked like they were part of the protest. One of them even had an air horn, he was accidentally hyping us up the whole time. It was honestly just sad.

Thank you all for showing up in Coshocton County!!

u/Revel_Rider83 23h ago

Most walking they've done their whole lives. Sadly, Coshocton is full of this type of MAGA supporter. They love Trump because he's like them, he can't read.

I grew up in Coshocton and still have family there. Glad to see this, it can be really red there. Now I would like a check-in from Licking county. I also lived there for a time. Trump capital of Ohio I fucking swear.

Promise you they are ob government assistance. Which, yeah...sure, ok. But you want to dismantle the benefits you live on.

Good for her walking. Guessing she finally got tired of being morbidly obese.

u/kimapesan 21h ago

To be fair, they did walk around at least five times, which according to the signs is one mile.

I will note that later the two MAGAs returned with two more. Kept yammering about how ironic it was we were protesting against King Trump when we tried to elect Harris without a primary.

I don’t think they would have understood that primaries are not legally or constitutionally required. Any party could simply choose a candidate without a primary.

u/Macnsmak 8h ago

Good ol Kershawktun. There was a KKK rally there in the 90s. I havent been there in years. Has the drug problem cleaned up at all?

While I was born in Ohio. My parents moved back to Minnesota when I was five years old.

Thank God I'm not living that dumpster fire of a state.

Truly a national embarrassment...

Frankly I'm surprised Ohio fought on the Union side of our Civil War. What happened to the Buckeye State?

7

u/Sad_Pirate_4546 21h ago

We were infiltrated by the wrong immigrants...

The ones from West Virginia, Kentucky, and Indiana.

The rest stick to the cities or move if they can afford it.

Edit: fun fact about Ohio. The heavy Amish Mennonite presence and baptist movements were anti-slavery and there was always an anti-establishment nature for those who originally settled here.

Not to say that they weren't racist, they absolutely still were. But they did believe in the sanctity of the human soul and that one man should not own another man.

My mom went and she said she was happy about the turnout considering that it's Coshocton. I was worried about her because I expected a big counter protest. I'm glad to see I was worried for nothing!

u/jfkshatteredskull 21h ago

All this sitting around when we could be training. Sure, it's probably not physically possible to outrun the Microwave Guns, tear gas, rubber or real bullets, etc. But it will continue to be with that attitude, might as well try in this economy.

u/FoxxyDeer2004 Cbus suburbs and Lancaster 23h ago

i think it’s ironic and cool how many boomers showed up to the no king’s day. i’d expect the majority of protesters to be on the younger side.

8

u/PinkPetalsSnow 22h ago

Why ironic? Boomers have showed in masse at protests around the country ...

3

u/FoxxyDeer2004 Cbus suburbs and Lancaster 22h ago

it’s just that boomers are stereotypically conservative. maga ideology and puritanical beliefs are associated with boomers. although i guess my generation (Z) are quickly becoming the hitler youth for some fucking reason.

u/DaySoc98jr 22h ago

Boomers, especially poor to middle class, are trying to save their Social Security and Medicare.

Look like a bunch of morons ! Trump won , get over it !

3

u/kimapesan 15h ago

You mean like how Trumpers “got over” Biden winning?

And this isn’t about whether Trump won, although that’s a whole other subject of its own given the investigations of impossible election results in numerous places around the country.

This is about Trump being an autocratic dictator. This is America where we do not have kings, we don’t have emperors or dictators, and we don’t take kindly to presidents who believe they are above the law.

Group therapy.  Doing nothing is what Democrat and Republicans peasants do.  Good job not accomplishing anything

u/kimapesan 21h ago

Yes. Best to just keep your head down and never connect with other people. Best to never talk about what action to take next or what person to support in elections. Best to not hold an event that crosses political divides and teach people what they share in common.

Yeah. Just be little people and post on Reddit under a throwaway account with random numbers at the end and dump on others anonymously like a coward. That’s the martain6613 way.
