The Donald J. Trump for President Meetup will be holding a counterprotest tomorrow, April 14, near the Grand Hyatt on 42nd Street at Lexington Avenue. Their present meeting place is just to the west of the Hyatt on the north side of 42nd Street, in front of the Bolton's store, and the time is 5:30 p.m.
Trump, Kasich, and Cruz will be at the NY Republican state party dinner ($1,000 if you decide to go to that instead) at the Hyatt.
As many of you know, the usual protesters to any Trump event will be there to protest. In addition, the group NY ICE is holding a counterprotest, but they are not Trump supporters, so the Meetup will be doing its own counteprotest.
This is not an official campaign event, just a grassroots operation. Bring homemade signs and wear your Trump clothing if you have it. Small American flags are always good. The usual rules apply: No amplified sound, no signs or flags on hard sticks, stay in your assigned area . . . you know the drill.
It's possible that the NYPD may change their meeting place, so stay in touch with FR for changes, or just ask the cops when you get there or look for the Trump signs.
Apparently, I am/was not on the Old NYC-area list. Can you put me on the New NYC-area list? Thanks. Don't know if I can make today's meetup/FReep, but definitely interested in future events.
OK. You should have been on the old list. Maybe I messed up when I did the new one. I took off some people who I knew were not for Trump.
Our official spot is now Lexington Avenue between 42nd and 43rd. Hope you can make it.
Our final official position for this counterprotest will be Lexington Avenue between 42nd and 43rd Streets, starting at 42nd and going north as we need the room. I’m not sure which side of Lexington.
Admin Mod, possibly you could put an update in the title of the thread: We will be on Lex between 42 and 43.
Many thanks, all.
keep me up to date on these NY gatherings...i received this one a little to late...TIA
It was last-minute. I scrambled to notify the cops and get our assigned spot yesterday. Only heard back from them this morning. Too bad. It would have been nice to see you again!

Thank you for all you are doing!
Looking forward to the AAR!
Bless your heart!
