i was at this protest and this seems VERY unlikely given the numbers and the very heavy police presence.
there are more protestors than the people in any one of the hotels near the convention; but all combined they’re outnumbered 5 to 1 and chicago is spending a LOT of $$$ on police overtime; there’s almost as many police as there are protesters.
that’s clearly the intent from the way that they’ve literally blocked off the entire section of the street and forced the organizers to hold the protest at an in-audible distance from the convention.

They also are trying to hide any protests inside the venue. They literally hit a woman in the head with their “We Love Joe” signs to get her to stop.
