Maddow Blog Poll shows the 'No Kings' protest movement topping MAGA in public support [View all]

Ahead of last month’s “No Kings” protests, Republicans launched a remarkably aggressive effort to slander Donald Trump’s critics, repeatedly insisting that the activists participating in the events “hate America.”

The smear campaign apparently didn’t work. NBC News reported on the results of its latest national poll:

The high election interest and focus on Trump also come as millions of Americans have participated in ‘No Kings’ protests against the Trump administration. In this survey, 43% say they consider themselves supporters of the No Kings protest movement — with the group largely composed of Democrats but also including around 4 in 10 independents.

Right off the bat, it’s worth emphasizing that this level of national public support for a protest movement that didn’t exist as 2025 got underway is extraordinary.
