Hundreds of supporters of President Donald Trump marched into Beverly Hills on Aug. 8 for a rally organized by the #WalkAway campaign, a group that encourages Democrats and unaffiliated liberals to defect to the Republican Party. The rally, titled “Rescue America,” gathered in front of the lily pond in Beverly Gardens Park to hear speakers from the conservative online media world condemn the national wave of civil rights protests and call for a second term for the President.
“Beverly Hills seemed like an ideal backdrop because of its beauty and the demographic it represents,” #WalkAway founder Brandon Straka, who organized the rally on Saturday, told the Courier. “Many Beverly Hills residents have fallen under the spell of leftist philosophy simply because of the constant reinforcement of these narratives in this entertainment industry and media-driven town.”
