On Saturday, President Donald Trump made fun of critics for calling him a “fascist” and the crowd chanted “twelve more years” at his Michigan rally in response.
The president has come under fire for hosting large-scale rallies, featuring minimal mask-wearing and no social distancing, during a pandemic. Still, Trump complained about several states that have implemented stricter social distancing rules. He has taken to calling his rallies “peaceful protests” instead.
Trump said, “The only thing you could do is you could protest. You could riot in the streets of Minneapolis, burn down their stores, you could beat the hell out of people, you could do whatever you want.”
“So I said I have an idea, let’s call all our rallies, which we do, peaceful protests,” he said as the crowd cheered. “If we call this a rally we would have a problem. So we’ll call it a peaceful protest,” he added.
