For days, anarchist and anti-fascist groups planned counterprotests to “overwhelm” Trump supporters at the Million MAGA March on Saturday. A group of counterprotesters were carrying signs that said, “Punch MAGA in the face.” Some counterprotesters became violent, and footage from the Million MAGA March shows several Trump supporters being attacked. One Trump supporter was brutally knocked out.
The mood was mostly festive at the Million MAGA March for the first few hours with exuberant chants of “U-S-A!,” Stop the steal,” and “Trump 2020!”

A man was reportedly attacked by a “man in black bloc at a counter-protest march.” The victim appears visibly dazed from the assault and his head is bleeding.
An anti-Trump assailant also punched another Trump supporter in the back of the head. Video from field reporter Jorge Ventura shows a mob of people attacking a man, landing several sucker punches. Then one attacker winds up and punches him in the head from behind, knocking him unconscious. As the man lay motionless on the ground, several counterprotesters stepped on his body. The man’s face was covered in blood.

Protesters stole a Gadsden flag and were sharpening the wooden flagpole, according to independent reporter Brendan Gutenschwager.
Black bloc vandals attempted to open the door of Jeep with Trump supporters inside, then attempted to smash the car windows. As the vehicle drove away, it appears that they hurled a golf ball at the car in a video taken by Drew Hernandez.

BLM and apparent anti-fascist supporters attacked a multiracial family with three small children at Million MAGA March.
Am a non violent person but I’am not going to stand there and get beat to death. I’ll fight back.
I’m with you, Mike. No one hits me without getting hit back, too.
Same here, bro.
All of this reportage about violence from the anti-Trump “black bloc”; but, not a word of condemnation. Not a word. The BLM and antifa (misnamed: they are not antifascists-they are using fascist playbook) bring objects to hurl at police and use disguise themselves. Where are the Democrats who are overjoyed to be gaining political power. If they want to lead so bad why aren’t they leading now by telling BLM and antifa to stop attacking. Stop setting fires. Stop smashing windows. There isn’t enough room here to express my outrage at the antics of these self important crybabies.
And who were the violent ones? It wasn’t the Trump supporters that’s for sure. It never was but the media tells you lies all the time. You voted for this folks. I guess that’s what you want. They let the anti Trumper’s go as soon as they’re arrested. What a corrupt system the Democrat Party and their leaders have become.
When we go out to rally for a president Donald Trump we should never be attacked we need to be prepared to defend ourselves with whatever means that need to be taken.These are domestic terrorists and our friends in the democratic party won’t stop this that we need to stop it ourselves.Go right back at them in a way they never imagined and they won’t be coming back anymore. This shit has to stop and we are the only ones that can make that happen there is no one else to help us.Thank you Joe Biden and the rest of your radical left gang.
The Democrat Party is the Party of Hate.
Now that the ‘squad’ has a freshly- minted BLM Marxist member, I wonder if the anti-American Libs will be taking orders from her too? If so, it’s time to arm up and start dropping these punks, patriots!
President Trump should NEVER CONCEDE…use the 12th Amendment and he will be restored as our legally elected President…
If you touch me, you will pay. By ending up in a hospital, or emergency room. You will have broken bones, bruses, cut’s. I will be carrying a ball bat, and pitch fork. No gun. I want to inflict as much pain on you. You’ll think twice of striking any other human being again.
