Americans rally with enthusiastic support for Trump

Americans across the country are rallying in nearly 60 U.S. cities this week in support of President Trump and his efforts to "Make America Great Again."

Some cities held rallies Monday, the eighth anniversary of the first protest of the tea-party movement in 2009. A larger round of at least 53 rallies is scheduled for Saturday, March 4. (A list of rallies, locations and times is included at the end of this report.)

According to Main Street Patriots, the rallies are intended to "reinforce and support the current policies being put in place that will help Make America Great Again!"

On Saturday, President Trump called for Americans to show their support by holding rallies. He tweeted: "Maybe the millions of people who voted to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN should have their own rally. It would be the biggest of them all!"

In Atlanta, a crowd of more than 250 people showed their support for Trump.

Vivian Phillips, a 60-year-old retired teacher, drove at least seven hours from West Virginia to attend the Atlanta rally. Phillips' sign read "Adorable deplorable from West Virginia."

"I just think we need to support our president," Phillips said, Reuters reported.

Edward Ethridge, an Atlanta business owner, said, "Give Trump a chance."

The Atlanta crowd chanted, "Four more years!"

State Sen. Josh McKoon, a Columbus Republican, said: "These folks think they know what's best for us. They think they're the masters of the universe. But in America, the people still get a say. The revolution, the earthquake on Nov. 8 is just the first step."

Just outside New Orleans, about 100 people – most of whom dressed in red, white and blue – gathered at a pavilion in Mandeville, Louisiana. Ralliers carried signs that read "We Love Trump" and "Support Our President."

The following are photos of Monday's rally outside the state capitol building in Denver:

One of the speakers at the Denver rally was 13-year-old Weston Imer, former co-chair of Trump's campaign office in Jefferson County.

Ralliers braved the harsh weather Monday in Bellingham, Washington, drawing about 100 people in three hours, according to organizer Eric Bostrom:

In Abingdon, Virginia, about 40 Trump supporters held signs and chanted, "Trump is the man!" Across the street, about 30 people held signs opposing Trump and some supported Obamacare, the Bristol Herald Courier reported.

In Concord, North Carolina, at least 125 Trump supporters chanted, "Trump Train, Trump Train, Trump Train!" Some people in the crowd carried signs that read "Get on the Trump Train," "Women for Trump," "President Trump You are doing a Great Job" and "Politicians Forgot about us! Trump Didn't!"

"He's our president now," said Concord Councilman Lamar Barrier, the Independent Tribune reported. "Like him or dislike him, he's our president, and we've got to support him. I think he’s getting his feet wet right now and some of the things he's done I agree with 100 percent and some things I'm about 60 percent with. He's not afraid to do things, and that's what it's all about."

Republican State Sen. Paul Newton said: "In a word, I think the reason we are here, in my view, is unity. One of the things that is lacking right now across our country is unity. And there is strength in unity. So, I thank you all for coming out to express support for Donald Trump. He is the president of our United States – not our divided states, but our United States.”
