The car rally was a show of support for President Trump in his former hometown…until counter-protesters began throwing rocks, eggs, and paint at cars. Then it became chaos.
It all began rather well on Sunday. A convoy of cars with Trump flags driving all over NYC showing their support for POTUS DJT in a deep blue state. It has been reported that there were more than a thousand vehicles in various parts of the city.
The event was organized by “Jews for Trump” and started off just fine.

Did you notice the “Turn NY Red” hashtag? If only…!
The parade went across the Brooklyn Bridge which was just spectacular.

Support for President Trump was visible all over the city because of the convoy.

Apparently, it wasn’t welcome by the “tolerant liberals” in NYC.
Seven people were arrested during skirmishes between opposing sides in Manhattan, where Rudolph W. Giuliani, the president’s personal lawyer and the city’s former mayor, encountered protesters targeting a caravan of cars organized by a group that identifies itself as Jews for Trump.
In one video, Mr. Giuliani could be seen in the passenger side of a vehicle with the window rolled down as anti-Trump protesters screamed at him.
In an interview, Mr. Giuliani said that he had encountered the caravan and the protesters while driving down Fifth Avenue after taping his radio show.
“I would love to have had a campaign commercial of it and put it on in the middle of America and say, ‘Who would you prefer for the next four years?’” he said. “This group of foul-mouthed people who don’t seem to have a vocabulary beyond three words, or these very nice Jewish people who are driving in the car and not saying anything back and not doing anything other than exercising their right to say they’re for Donald Trump.”
Watch the local CBS report:
According to the police, the pro-Trump caravan passed through Times Square, where it converged with a group of anti-Trump protesters who had marched from Brooklyn. The cars in the convoy were then blocked by counterprotesters, and some drivers got out of their cars to confront the anti-Trump demonstrators.
The two sides hurled political slurs — calling each other “fascists” and “anarchists”— traded blows, and fought over the Trump supporters’ flags before the police broke them apart, according to videos posted online.
In some videos, a group of people can be seen yelling expletives and throwing eggs and other projectiles at passing cars flying pro-Trump flags in Midtown, while in another, a group of people holding pro-Trump banners march on one side of the street as people across the street yell, “New York hates you.”

You can see the protesters throwing rocks, eggs, and even paint at the vehicles in the convoy.

Counter-protesters were ripping flags off of the cars in the convoy in Manhattan.

This was a peaceful show of support for the President and a bunch of leftists didn’t like it so they lashed out and attacked.
Those “tolerant” Biden-voters shouted down the mostly Jewish Trump supporters, threw things at them, and told them that they weren’t welcome in New York. Uh… isn’t that anti-semitic?!
Isn’t it funny how the left — who had massive “anti-racism” protests in major cities for months are now targeting Jewish Trump supporters in the streets and telling them that “New York hates you.”
But… I thought that “Love Trumps Hate”?
Or is that slogan just too 2016?
The left has gone bananas.
