On Feb. 27 and
March 4, the rallies—dubbed the Spirit of America Rallies—will spring up
nationwide in cities and towns across America.
“These rallies are inclusive,
non-partisan, and open to anyone supporting President Trump in his efforts to
bring back manufacturing jobs to America, put the security of our nation ahead
of political correctness, improve our infrastructure, revitalize the inner
cities and secure our nation’s borders,” Debbie Dooley, a national co-founder
of the Tea Party movement and a key organizer of the Spirit of America rallies,
says in a press release obtained by Breitbart News ahead of its public release.
Since President Trump’s
election, during his time as president-elect and since his inauguration on Jan.
20, hardcore progressive leftists have been repeatedly protesting him in a
sometimes violent manner. These rallies, organizers say, are meant to be a
peaceful show of force from the “silent majority” that delivered Trump a
landslide electoral college victory over failed Democratic president Hillary
Rodham Clinton.
Dooley told Breitbart News that
since the anti-Trump women’s march in D.C. after the president’s inauguration,
she has received so many calls from Trump supporters–including many,
many women Trump supporters–urging her to organize a show of force among
the silent majority nationwide in response–that she had to turn off her cell
phone so she could get work done. The Spirit of America rallies are not Tea
Party rallies, she adds, and she hopes that Democrat groups backing Trump–there
were many of them nationwide, forming a collective called the
“Trumpocrats”–will get involved and step up to help the president, too. She
also notes that the selection of Feb. 27 as the kickoff date of these pro-Trump
rallies is significant, since that was the first day of the Tea Party movement
back in 2009.
“I am proud to lead the charge
here in Louisiana to get supporters of President Trump to show their support of
his policy agenda through these Spirit of America rallies,” Col. Rob Maness, a
retired Air Force colonel, founder of GatorPAC and two-time conservative Senate
candidate in Louisiana who’s also involved in helping the rallies in his home
state, added in the release. “Average citizens from across the political
spectrum and all walks of life elected Mr. Trump and we at GatorPAC are
especially pleased to help him with his national effort to Make America Great
Again and #DrainTheSwamp priorities in Washington D.C.”
Ralph King, an elector for
President Trump from Ohio and the co-founder of Main Street Patriots, added
that he believes “the American electorate spoke loud and clear this past
November.”
“These Spirit of America Rallies
are a continuation of the collective voice of Americans that embrace President
Trump’s policies to put the American workers and citizens first once again,”
King said.
Rallies are in the works in
states as far-flung as Arizona, Georgia, Colorado, Indiana, Iowa, Louisiana,
New Jersey, Ohio, South Carolina, and Washington state—as well as other states,
organizers say. More information is available on the Spirit of America rallies website.
