Protesters in Michigan and other states claim to speak for ordinary citizens, but are also supported by street-fighting far-right groups

While protesters in Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky and other states claim to speak for ordinary citizens, many are also supported by street-fighting rightwing groups like the Proud Boys, conservative armed militia groups, religious fundamentalists, anti-vaccination groups and other elements of the radical right.
Well there you have it. Not ordinary people at all. More like loony whackos from the fringes. America needs to help these idiots deal with their craziness.
Right. How many were protesting and how many were from this group?
Nice deflection from some. I heard the usual left wing pundits on TV, "they were waving Confederate Flags and showing swastikas. This was pure evil meant to strike fear into us all!"
What I always find fascinating, is how they ignore all of the people who were there and focus on a couple of clowns. Some, planted there most certainly to give them some weak cover to focus on them. Furthermore, even if every hate group in the country came by, what does that have to do with peoples disagreements with politicians there?
Clearly, some don't want the narrative to be "people are fed up". Here is where it's going to get tricky. If one state says "we are closed for business" and a state nearby opens up. You are going to see and hear from BUSINESSES who will be losing untold amounts of cash and market share. Let's see them paint those people in a negative light.
Canada is already feeling the heat by Trump slowly opening up some areas. I imagine businesses in each state will feel the same. I believe Texas is one state that is going to be opened. More for them I guess. This is why local leadership matters, for all of us.
