Right wing protest near Independence Hall on the eve of July 4th in Philadelphia

A large group of protesters wearing uniforms, carrying "Reclaim America" banners and upside-down American flags marched through Old City passing Independence Hall late on the eve of July 4th. They arrived loaded in several Penske trucks in the city.

You can reclaim America. That is part of our system of government. We just did reclaim America!!!!
I doubt you will reclaim it by marching around like a bunch of fascist and disgracing our flag.
