Following up on theNoKings protest & polls on election day. More people say that they suport the #NoKings movement than support the MAGA movement. No surprise since the president's approval is under 50% & only 33% believe he is making the country stronger. Protests reflected popular sentiment.

I missed this when it first came out. Great piece by @catecharron.bsky.social in the IndyStar about the local 50501 organization and the challenges faced by new movement groups (and, no, not just because I’m quoted in it). @asa-cbsm.bsky.social www.indystar.com/story/news/p...
