He would love no protesters, then he can (correctly) say they were too scared to protest. Blues Heron May 25 #26

He says shit all the time. But YOU will be in DC, right? Nobody needs to be in DC to massively protest it. Bernardo de La Paz May 26 #56

Great, if you cant get to DC, by all means go for it! Blues Heron May 25 #41

They won't be tiny. I think some cities will have more people out in each than tRump will have in DC Bernardo de La Paz May 26 #52
