WATCH: Trump Supporters Dwarf ‘Cat Ladies For Kamala’ Event With Massive Golf Cart Rally

Trump supporters in Florida’s The Villages assembled in golf carts over the weekend in order to send a message to a group of Kamala Harris supporters who organized a golf cart rally of their own earlier this week.

Despite the fact that large swaths of Florida were under weather advisories due to an approaching tropical storm, turnout for the rally was reportedly massive. “There are around 1,000 carts here right now and the mood is electric,” Valerie Jamieson, co-president of The Villages MAGA Club, told local outlet Gulf Live just ahead of the parade’s 1 p.m. start time.

Footage shows hundreds of golf carts decked out in American flags and Trump gear assembled as far as the eye can see ahead of the rally. Some carts displayed signs reading “Kamala, You’re Fired” and “Make America Great Again” while others played patriotic music.

U.S. Rep. Daniel Webster (R-FL) was also spotted amongst the crowd.

Last weekend, a much smaller group of Kamala Harris supporters gathered in the retirement community for a rally of their own. The event, titled “Cat Ladies For Kamala,” drew a few dozen  Harris supporters in the predominantly conservative community.

“Young people are energized and so are we,” said Villages resident Joyce Wiegand. “I’m really glad she does appeal to young people, because they’ve been marginalized in voting for years,” added Karen Wink, another Harris rally goer.

Gulf Live noted that 70 percent of registered voters in Sumter County, of which a portion of The Villages is located in, vote Republican. Trump visited the retirement community twice, becoming the first sitting president to do so.
