Did “No Kings” Change Things?

The piece at left is interesting, but I doubt there’s any real truth to it, even though every decent person in America wishes this were so.

Trump supporters come in two varieties:

1) Uneducated MAGA white nationalists, who believe that we just saw a relatively small number of Marxists, domestic terrorists, sexual deviants, and haters of America take to the streets.

2) The amoral rich people, who understand that Trump, with his overt lawlessness and authoritarianism, is still in charge, regardless of what a bunch of liberals want.  We give him money, and he gives us what we want, especially tax breaks and advantageous legislation.

I’m not saying that we shouldn’t be proud of what we did; let’s just not expect any real change.
