"Things got a bit surreal at the No Kings rally in Los Angeles on Saturday, with MSNBC reporter Jacob Soboroff at one point interviewing an attendee in a Bear costume and another in a Unicorn outfit back-to-back live on air. I've never interviewed a unicorn live on MSNBC, Soboroff joked, while laughing as he pulled the unicorn in for a Q-and-A. Well, there's always a first time for everything, the man in the unicorn outfit told him."
"We're here peacefully protesting, looking as ridiculous as we can, just so maybe we appeal to the president. Because he is a ridiculous leader that is normalizing abuse of power, and we cannot stand and act like nothing is happening. The unicorn said a few tears come out now and then, because he is sad to know people are hiding in [their] homes, terrified that their families are broken because of federal immigration officers, apparently."
"Before talking to the unicorn, Soboroff talked to a woman in a full bear outfit. The woman inside, Paula, said water breaks are important and that she had a little fan inside to help her beat the SoCal heat. I'm not a radical. I'm just here to promote democracy and no kings, Paula the Bear told Soboroff, after he asked if she was part of Antifa or a radical."
A No Kings rally in Los Angeles featured protesters wearing animal costumes, including a unicorn and a woman in a full bear outfit. A reporter conducted live back-to-back interviews with the costumed attendees on national television. The unicorn said the outfit aimed to capture President Donald Trump's attention and accused him of normalizing abuse of power. The unicorn also said occasional tears appear because people hide in their homes, fearful of federal immigration officers breaking up families. The woman in the bear costume said water breaks and a small fan helped handle the Southern California heat and denied being part of Antifa. Dressing ridiculously was described as a deliberate protest strategy.
