Tens of thousands of president’s supporters take to Washington’s frozen streets: ‘Trump will fix everything’

The streets of downtown Washington — a simulation of a downtown in a city where skyscrapers are prohibited by law — were transformed early Monday morning into one of the dozens, hundreds of towns that over the past two years and across the country have hosted rallies by then-candidate Donald Trump. There were red caps, alarmist messages about the country’s progress, and merchandising stands always up to date with the latest news, such as T-shirts that showed the new president with the White House in the background and the message “Dad is back,” or hats that altered, perhaps a little prematurely, the classic Trumpist slogan of “Make America Great Again” to “America is Great Again.”
