March 4, 2017 was a day to remember. Thousands of Americans gathered together this Saturday in 61 cities to express their support of President Donald Trump and harken his call to “renew the Spirit of America.”

In his speech to Congress last week, Trump said,

“The time for trivial fights is behind us. We just need the courage to share the dreams that fill our hearts. The bravery to express the hopes that stir our souls. And the confidence to turn those hopes and dreams to action. From now on, America will be empowered by our aspirations, not burdened by our fears. Inspired by the future, not bound by the failures of the past. And guided by our vision, not blinded by our doubts.

“I am asking all citizens to embrace this renewal of the American spirit.”

Trump also 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!

And in response, his supporters came out in droves. They rallied online on Facebook and Twitter, and groups throughout the country organized marches, rallies, and public speaking events to occur– in over 60 cities– on the same day. None of these participants were paid to destroy public and private property or to commit arson, theft, or violence, as the Soros-funded BLM rioters are.

In fact, the thousands of people who came out on Saturday in over 60 cities did so of their own accord, joyfully, and in unity with their neighbors and friends to express love for America and their president. 

In Michigan, Women for Trump and others expressed why they’re behind Trump and their hope for America’s future:

In Louisiana, Americans’ patriotism and enthusiasm was on display:

In New York City, voters joyfully explained why they support and voted for Trump: he is delivering on his promises:

In Florida, President Trump stopped, got out of his car, and waved to the crowd, thanking them for his support.

In Iowa, Pastor Terry Amann declared to a crowd of roughly 300 people at the state capitol:

“Right now, at this time in history, we can recognize that we have been given a new day of freedom – a new opportunity to underscore, the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights, and the full Constitution, the rule of law and to share these blessings with our children, and with our children’s children. It is now possible, through our recent election, once again, that our progenitors can have a better tomorrow, than we have had today.

“Right now, at this time in history, in March of 2017, we can look forward to a renewed America – not as a nation that is quick to point the wicked finger of judgment, but rather as a nation that is prepared to lift up a helping hand of hope.

“In November, the voice of America rumbled across the land. The power of ‘We the People’ has been unshackled and unleashed. Hear me roar! In these moments of grace, we do not need to be burdened by the mistakes of the past, but we can be lifted up by the possibilities of the future. Yet, we must seize the moment, and carry the torch, so as to lead out with dignity. And that dignity can never be found in political correctness, it can only be found in the truth – the truth that will set people free.

“Therefore, let us not stand back and wait for others to write history. Instead, let us be the faithful stewards of this risk-filled experiment in freedom, in order that all of humanity will be raised up.”

In Tennessee, a similar theme arose– of Americans’ patriotic duty to demonstrate and rally peacefully– to support causes and principles without destruction or violence but to build up and encourage fellow citizens:

Contrasted to the violence, arson, and looting of the paid BLM domestic terrorist rioters, these Americans expressed commitment to patriotism, a hope for positive solutions for the future, and a spirit of love for their neighbors rooted in nonviolence. What refreshing example and reminder of what rallies protected by the Constitution should look like.
