Where were the DC protests? That sounds like a large number and I know the No Kings protest organizers excluded DC from their planning because they wanted to draw focus away from there. If it was 500k in DC that would have been fairly substantial because that would be larger than the 2017 DC women's march, which was the largest protest since the Vietnam war and was so large it encompassed most of the national mall. You couldn't actually march anywhere because people were shoulder to shoulder.
It was 50k, not 500k. I mistyped and corrected it. The protests in DC were staggered from the morning hours and ended by 4PM in accordance with permits.
