Republican Senator, Mike Lee has called on all Americans, including the Democrats to condemn the display of 8647 by the “hands off” protesters.

DAILY POST reports that anti-Elon Musk and President Donald Trump on Saturday stormed many states in the country in rallies against the present administration.

Some of the protesters could be seen displaying placards with inscriptions, “we are not okay, hands off the USA, 8647”.


The 8647 figures are alleged to be a call for President Trump’s assassination.

Our correspondent understands that 8647 is a TikTok trend that means two different things.

The 8647 is designed to be a silent form of protest designed to signal opposition to President Trump’s administration.

While 86 is a number commonly used to mean something like “get rid of,” 47 is the number president that Trump is in his second term.

He was elected as the 47th president of the United States of America.

Sharing an image from the protest, which reportedly took place close to Minnesota’s Attorney General, Keith Ellison, Senator Lee called for condemnation from all Americans.

In a post on his official X handle, the Republican Senator wrote, “All Americans should condemn this including Democrats. Starting with @keithellison”.
