Jingthing Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Just now, Ulysses G. said: What complete nonsense. This kind of dishonest political rhetoric helped get the man elected. It is so ridiculous that voters just ignored it and every other point that those spewing it made. EVERY candidate has some wackos supporting them and Trump rejected racist groups repeatedly. Alt right icon right by his side. Bannon. Racist Sessions as Attorney General. Not convincing, dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boomerangutang Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 I just scrolled through the many photos, each of an anti-Trump protest in a different place - throughout the US and the world. Amazing. I've been calling Trump "The Divider" for months, and I will continue, but in a warped way he's also 'The Uniter.' He's united good people around the world, with their disgust for him and his policy proposals. here's a link to the photos. I was moved by seeing them. There are protests nearly everywhere, from Antarctica to Bangkok, to Bogota, to little towns you may have never heard of. This is just the beginning. Stay tuned.

boomerangutang Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Another page which pinpoints some of the protests' locations. There are a bunch in the US, of course, but also dozens (maybe hundreds?) around the world - mostly Europe, Canada and Mexico. It's heartening to see so many folks banding together to stand up for their rights. Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linda Sarsour, one of the organizers behind Saturday’s Women’s March, being held in Washington, D.C., was recently spotted at a large Muslim convention in Chicago posing for pictures with an accused financier for Hamas, the terrorist group. http://dailycaller.com/2017/01/21/womens-march-organizer-recently-met-ex-hamas-operative-has-family-ties-to-terror-group/ Who started the march? One woman : Teresa Shook "Hawaii grandmother Teresa Shook wanted to share her outrage with other women the night after Donald Trump was elected president, but she had few options in her remote island community. So she went on Facebook and in a popular political group wrote the first thing that came to mind: I think we should march." http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-women-idUSKBN13U0GW It started with a retiree. Now the Women’s March could be the biggest inauguration demonstration. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/it-started-with-a-grandmother-in-hawaii-now-the-womens-march-on-washington-is-poised-to-be-the-biggest-inauguration-demonstration/2017/01/03/8af61686-c6e2-11e6-bf4b-2c064d32a4bf_story.html?utm_term=.ad0628d49f56 http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-pol-womens-march-live-who-started-the-march-one-1485033621-htmlstory.html Edited January 22, 2017 by Opl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the moment he was sworn in. Of course the trick is to get hard evidence and enough republicans to get on board. I see it now... Joker Republicans knew they could not beat Clinton fair and square so Trump is their trump ^^^ card, get him elected, Democrat's will petition for impeachment, Republicans half heatedly oppose thereby getting their man Mike Pence in through the back door. The Democrat's should leave it to the Republican's to do their dirty work... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I venture it's the biggest worldwide demonstration about anything ....ever! I challenge anyone to name an international-scale demonstration which garnered 1/10th the folks. A few runner-ups which come to mind: >>> The outrage against Paris' Charlie Hebdo magazine workers who were murdered >>> anger against European cartoonists by Muslims >>> condolences for Nelson Mandela None garnered the numbers that this current demonstration is getting. Another note: nearly every one of the thousands of signs being held were hand-made. Most often, when there's a demonstration, signs are mass produced. Not with this one. 29 minutes ago, William Osborne said: most likely welfare leeches, i think most middle/working class americans would at least give him a chance ? ... beside BS marches inconveniencing normal people getting on with their lives and making a living ? Welfare leeches? Umm, let me think. Who gets the most hand-outs from the feds? Oh, I just remembered! It's Wall Street wheeler dealers like Goldman Sachs. It's the Big 3 automakers. It's Fanny May and Freddie Mack. It's tax dodgers like Trump, who use millions of dollars of taxpayer-paid infrastructure, while paying nothing in taxes.

Jingthing, you are a self-described homosexual. Why do you care of women's issues? You've not a dog in that fight. Trump nor Pence has ever said anything about repealing Roe-Wade. They simply can not do that. That is a legal issue for the supreme court. It would not happen. I've not an issue with abortion... as long as it is not funded by federal $$$. Each state can do what they want, as it should be. As an aside, that report on planned parenthood recently came out. Very damning. Proven they were indeed selling baby parts. So much so that they were un-welcomed at this woman march. So what are you really concerned about, loosing gay rights? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so fast on this Kelly Anne Conway has come up with a new catch phrase for reports of low favorability ratings and lower turn out claims at the inauguration. I think this will be a common phrase when things go pear shaped for the Donald and the Republic congress. The phrase is called "alternate facts" kind of catchy don't you think.

Jingthing Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 What's it about? A historic RESISTANCE to a historic MISTAKE. (trump.) Quote The Women’s March was a stand against complacency The Women’s March was decidedly about women, their rights and the demand that they not be denied. But it was at least as much a message to Trump and to the country: Less than 24 hours after the new president took the oath of office, hundreds of thousands of Americans came together to say that they would not stand by in silence if the new administration threatened basic freedoms or the advances of the past eight years, and the last 50. https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-partisan/wp/2017/01/21/the-womens-march-was-a-stand-against-complacency/?utm_term=.21e1cd0f5b7f Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your right about california and Illinois but not right about why the electoral college exists. The population total for California, New York state and Illinois total close to 68.7 million people. All three are overwhelmingly democratic states Ohio has almost 12 million people and Pennsylvania is almost 13 million people. Both democratic states.
