De Blasio's Star-Studded Trump Protest To Shut Down Columbus Circle
Upper West Side Patch ^ | 1/19/17 | Brendan Krisel

Posted on 01/19/2017 10:32:40 AM PST by markomalley

In just one day Donal Trump will be the president of the United States. Even though the president-elect was accused by Republican primary opponent Ted Cruz of having "New York values," it appears that New Yorkers are ready to resist "Trump values."

Mayor Bill de Blasio and a host of activism organizations and celebrities will hold an inauguration eve protest in front of the Trump International Hotel & Tower in Columbus Circle. The protest is expected to be attended by stars such as Sally Field, Mark Ruffalo, Rosie Perez, Alec Baldwin, Marisa Tomei, Julianne Moore, Cynthia Nixon, Natalie Merchant, Michael Moore and Shailene Woodley and activists such as Al Sharpton and members of Planned Parenthood of New York City, the Working Families Party, Families USA, Greenpeace US and New York Communities for Change, according to a news release.

Robert DeNiro will also apparently speak at the rally, according to Michael Moore.

Another batch of old has beens. Must be sad to be one of them, their careers behind them, their influence gone.

Yeah, because a swarm of celebrities did so much for Hillary’s campaign. I hope they keep this up, it will just make Trump stronger and stronger.

The left whines about the rich, calls the middle class deplorable but then listen to only what the rich have to say. Got it.

I expect Trump Tower windows to be broken and other damage to be exacted before these CRIMINALS (not ‘protestors’) are finished.

And that’ I’m sure, will be totally intimidating.

More Hollywood losers and D-listers looking for a camera.

DeDorkio has much reason to hate Trump.

The woman most vile and corrupt now has a good chance to beat his little wimpy liberal butthole to become the next mayor of the nation’s second most corrupt city.

Only a criminal mayor would want any protesting in their city.

These protests are anti-American. This has gotten out of hand. If you’re so opposed to Trump, then you’re anti-American.

There is nothing wrong with peaceful opposition. But the Tea Party did not form until Obama actually did something (Porkulus). These morons were hitting the streets the next day after Hillary lost and have engaged in all kinds of actions to nullify the results of a legal election.

Arrest them and let them spend the night and next day in the unheated armory in DC with no beds, no food and only cold water in buckets.

This liberal bs of blocking traffic has to be stopped. It is dangerous for the law abiding citizens needing to drive or walk in the blocked areas.

Give anyone, who blocks traffic in a protest, 90 days hard jail time like cleaning up the streets they blocked, and big fines that even Follywooders will grimace at.
