“One thing I say is, Ali, Ali, I repeat, when we talk about things like tension in the country, and sometimes you and I have both been at Trump rallies. Hayes asked Versi.
Military Parade Saturday coincided with Trump’s 79th birthday in honor of the US Army’s 250th anniversary. But the parade came as riots and protests continue in Los Angeles and across the country over Trump administration’s policies.

Versi said that politicization was still present in the event, but it was dark and not tense.
“Now there’s someone walking around with signs. A while ago, while you were talking to Jen, a man just came in and said, ‘Trump 2028!” And I said, “How exactly does it work?” And he laughed, there was some politicization here, but it wasn’t nervous.

MSNBC’s Jen Psaki said hearing it was “encouraging” to be “calm and not over-exercise amongst attendees.”
But Psaki said calm could change depending on what President Trump said during his speech at the parade.
