Supporters of former President Donald Trump held a parade in New York City on Friday, but were met by counter-protesters. The event featured the unfurling of a 50-foot "Trump 2024" flag, and a march from Trump Tower to Times Square, but tensions flared after a counter-protest was staged.
A large crowd of Trump supporters marched down Fifth Avenue and carried Gadsden and thin blue line flags as well as large banners, including one showing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi depicted as being evil while ripping up a copy of Trump's 2020 State of the Union speech.
As the Trump supporters made their way to Times Square, NYPD officers attempted to keep counter-protesters at bay. However, there were several tense exchanges and multiple arrests.
Video journalist Ford Fischer from News 2 Share shared footage from the event, including the moment where a counter-protester confronted a group with "Asians for Trump" signs. The counter-protester gets in the face of one Trump supporter and screams, "Fight me, Fight me then!"

Of course, the media is embedded with BLMAntifa.
‘Good. we need to be in the streets as often as possible.”
Agreed.
The trouble doesn’t start until the counter protesters show up.

Breaking news across the media outlets...... Sure!
This might signal the beginning of civil war 2.
How was the police officer injured?
“NYPD said one police officer was taken to the hospital after a liquid, which was believed to be bleach, was thrown into his eyes.”
Sounds like by a lefty. Think Pelousy will call out the National Guard?
This is a tactic used by the left to provoke Trump supporters so they can kill them.
