A couple people responded to my earlier post about the shoddy WSJ article (hachyderm.io/@molly0xfff/11468) to say “well it’s true that Democrats aren’t supporting the protests!”

At my best count, 75 elected Democrats (Congresspeople, governors) attended protests today. Another 27 encouraged people to go.

That’s just looking at today’s protests, not Democrats talking about or attending protests more generally. It also doesn’t count the many more state or local officials who showed up, candidates, etc.
