The rumor goes that a Trump supporter had a Trump flag on his property that his neighbors didn’t like. His neighbors called the HOA on him and asked him to remove the flag. The man then decided to wrap his boat in Trump colors, and the Jupiter Trump Boat Parade began.

The parade had reportedly 1,000 boats consisting of Trump supports sounding their horns in celebration of Trump’s presidency. Some twitter users claim the actual number of boats totaled 10,000. They drove their boats from all over the coast of Florida, although the original idea came from residents in Jupiter, Florida. These supports went all the way to Trump’s property in Mar-a-largo.

As one Twitter user points out, Trump isn’t in town for this display of support and patriotism. Trump has spent the last month tethered to the White House due to the coronavirus pandemic. President Trump spent the weekend working at Camp David, which I am sure was a welcomed reprieve from the confines of the White House.
Great to wake up to a Trump boat parade on the intercoastal heading north to Mar-a-Lago and with appropriate social distancing. #POTUS isn’t in town but still great Trump excitement. Florida is Trump country. #MAGA2020 @realDonaldTrump pic.twitter.com/fEU2t2dkcV

Look at the sheer numbers supporting Trump. I’m sure it didn’t take much convincing to break quarantine and jump on the boat for the day.

Trump came out in full support of the boaters via Twitter. He tweeted out a thank you to his supporters saying, “Thank you very much to our beautiful ‘boaters.’ I will never let you down!”

Of course, not everyone loved the support Trump was getting. Democrats on Twitter are so confused as to why we support Trump. They are blind to jobs he has completed while in office. He has more that needs to be done. It is good to see him fully supported even though the Democrats have spent the last four years completing hit job after hit job.
The fact that people actually went out and did a trump boat parade today scares me

This twitter user calls the Trump Boat Parade the “million privilege march.” I may be wrong in this, but I thought Floridians were given their boat at birth. Hahaha.
That was obviously a joke, but the sentiment stands. I know people in Florida who own a boat and don’t have $1,000 in the bank much less a million. BUT WHO CARES HOW MUCH MONEY THESE PEOPLE MAKE? I am so tired of the narrative that because you worked hard and you are successful, that makes you a bad person.
I hate trump but this 2020 trump boat parade in my hometown is amazing. it's like the million privilege march. https://t.co/204oKddQSt

They are so salty! Trump supporters had the last laugh as they try to imagine what a Biden boat parade would look like. I have to say that Trump supporters continue to be the reigning trolling champs.
