AP: Boat parades, road rallies buoy Trump
UC political scientist David Niven cited in article on parades and Trump supporters
Multiple news outlets, including U.S. News & World Report, picked up an Associated Press article reporting on how the recent surge of parades — by boat, car and foot — are just one of the many ways grassroots supporters of President Donald Trump show their enthusiasm for the 2020 Republican candidate.
David Niven, an associate professor of political science at the University of Cincinnati, contributed his opinion in the article.
Niven stated that the parades aren’t about spreading the message as much as they are reassuring the president’s backers with “a sea of Trump flags whether they’re on the road or the river.”
Niven teaches American politics and conducts research on campaigns, political communication and death penalty policy.
