BERGEN COUNTY, NJ — A large crowd of over 300 demonstrators gathered outside a Tesla dealership in Bergen County on Saturday in a show of support for Elon Musk and former President Donald Trump, overwhelming a small group of counter-protesters during what had been dubbed a “Day of Rage” by critics of Tesla.
The rally, which had a strong pro-Trump presence, was organized in response to left-wing calls for demonstrations against Musk and his companies. Supporters carrying American flags and wearing pro-Trump gear lined the streets in front of the dealership.
