and that's just boston, people forget boston =/= the state

a lot of protests occcured in lots of cities across all the states, the news just tends to focus on the best known city in each state

it's a lot bigger than that

for trump, who actively avoided service of any kind, to compare the misnomer of in vs during from someone who actually served to the financial scams & lies of santos is a level of rhetoric only maga are willing to "understand"

santos did trump crimes which is why trump thinks they're no big deal
