"As No Kings protests swelled in numbers across the country, Fox News's Kayleigh McEnany doubted that the crowds were as large as even her own reporter claimed. I've got to be honest, the Trump rallies look bigger than what we are seeing, McEnany said on Saturday. Not sure there's a huge anti-Trump appetite here across the country. McEnany's comments came just seconds after Fox News reporter Madison Scarpino reported live from Atlanta."
"Organizers want to break records they expect millions of Americans to come and protest, she said. Just here at the Atlanta rally, organizers expect up to 10,000 people. That's checking out from what we are seeing so far. You see this sea of people holding signs, chanting, several speakers so far, and they are fired up."
"After Scarpino's report, McEnany brought on MAGA influencer Nick Sortor to preview what she expected to be a violent night in Portland, Oregon. You're in Portland and it is a different beast and it gets pretty violent there at night, McEnany said by way of introduction. Sortor was recently arrested in Portland after stomping out an American flag that was on fire and tussling with protesters who targeted him for being conservative. He was not charged."
Kayleigh McEnany expressed skepticism about the size and anti‑Trump appetite of No Kings protest crowds despite on-the-scene reporting indicating large gatherings. Fox News reporter Madison Scarpino said organizers expected millions nationally and up to 10,000 at the Atlanta rally, describing chanting, signs, and fired-up attendees. McEnany then interviewed MAGA influencer Nick Sortor, who warned of potentially violent nights in Portland and was previously arrested after stomping a burning American flag and tussling with protesters, though he faced no charges. Viral Portland videos showed protesters in inflatable costumes using humor to confront ICE agents.
