Ten-Day Anti-Trump Protest March From Charlottesville to DC


Convening Partners activists are set to start a 10-day march from Charlottesville, Virginia to Washington, D.C. on Monday to demand President Trump's removal from office.

  1. Shorter version: Trump is racist. We don't like Trump. Trump go home.

    I wonder how much support there is for such a campaign?

  2. Trump had to open his big, fat mouth...

    Now we have this cadre of crazy left-wing groups marching over Washington to ask for his resignation. All encouraged by Trump's ambivalent stance regarding white supremacists and Nazi groups.

    I told you. I told you many times: Trumo was going to be the face of Capitalism whether we liked it or not. Now the left has a new cause, all because Trump couldn't hold his tongue for just a few minutes.

  3. Always opportunities to be had when people are disgruntled with the state, especially when it's a bunch of erstwhile true believers. Sure we'll never reach most of these people, but some are ripe for enlightenment, and need to be shown how Trump is merely a fruit of their asshole god "democracy."

    Don't forget that many current libertarians were once lefties protesting Bush's wars.
