MSNBC was weird tonight, I kept waiting for more from Rachel Maddow, but this was it - at least so far.

The only question I would have is what did they expect?? I know that millions of protesters turned out, but we already knew what this criminal was about, convicted of 34 felonies, an adjudicated rapist who stole classified documents jeopardizing national security, lied about the last election and then tried to overthrow the government! Who in their right mind would vote for that??!

Especially enjoyed the various signs with strong messages. But the best part was the camaraderie and enthusiasm of everybody there. Looking forward to participating in future events.

Many thanks for posting this clip!

and joined in a massive crowd. I was first in and first out. First in due to the hour that I arrived. First out due to having the best parking spot. Very few counter protesters. Only one loudmouth that I saw.

Now lets keep it up. Next time I will do Seattle.

By the way, I stopped in the Dalles Oregon and protested with them the day before. There were many signs to choose from. I wanted one with more snark. Will make my own next time.

Yours in solidarity,
