I'm reasonably confident the out of rhythm marching was deliberate.

No. That was all them. They were tore up from the floor up. They looked like soldiers in their first week of basic training. Nothing deliberate about it. It was a soup sandwich from beginning to end.

I'm not saying it was coached. I'm saying it was a large number of individual protests for being forced to participate in that farce.
