Surprisingly few anti-Trump protesters showed up to disrupt the 2016 Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Ohio. While it had been reported that as many as ten thousand demonstrators would be in attendance, the Tuesday July 19th demonstration produced no more than a small handful of protesters. The recent police shootings in Baton Rouge and Dallas, by racist blacks, may have dampened the BLM movements’ vigor. Without a doubt, reporters and photojournalists far outnumbered the protesters, making this event more of a camera fest than a political protest.
