From American Atheists:
“Though videos confirm the Trumps were met with a mixed reception of cheers and boos, the official White House record reflects only ‘thunderous applause.’”

It’s also interesting that, although unattributed (Snopes), the ad mentioned in the article was seemingly on Craigslist suggesting someone was willing to pay people to be at Trump’s DC Parade.
The only thing I’m certain of is that, under Trump, America has fallen a long way from the standards of acceptable politics. I’m not claiming anyone else in perfect (there’s always corruption), just better.

We rose up against a king before, and we can do it again.

Living in a constitutional monarchy that is (IMHO) quite well-functioning, I’d just like to remind the audience here that there is a significant difference between an autocratic King (with capital K) and a king (lowercase k) that is the formal head of state but with (by design) very little actual political influence.

Almost any political system is probably better than what we have now.
Trump is a sociopath with no redeeming qualities.
