Protesters expected during Donald Trump's weekend trip to Bay Area

The three GOP presidential candidates hoping to woo Bay Area and state Republicans this weekend should brace for local pushback — especially against one particular feisty candidate.

Donald Trump, along with Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and Ohio Gov. John Kasich, will be at the California Republican Convention starting Friday. Trump's Friday lunchtime speech at the Hyatt Regency San Francisco Airport in Burlingame is drawing the most controversy.

A post from BlackOUT Collective, who set up the "Turn Up" event, said they would be part of a contingent with the Anti-Police Terrorism Project, Black Lives Matter Bay Area, and Black Youth Project 100.

I wonder how members of these groups can take off from work on Friday to go protest Trump?

It helps if ...

A. You don’t have a job and you’re on the public dole.
B. If you’re in school, you’re majoring in something like “LGBT studes” or “Pygmy Poetry” rather than STEM.

They are being paid to disrupt the Trump events. That IS their job.

I hope they do protest.

It helps to clearly draw a line between “middle America” and the socialist in the big cities.

In the end, it will not hurt Trump and may win him a few more votes.

Great smack down by Crowder of a protester... Smackdown! . Thing is these are not your Father's hippies. They were bad enough, but they had a modicum of moral of a compass when it came to free speech. This brand of professional college student, fueled by endless years in school, with bogus degrees and copious cheap student loan money does not want free speech, they want speech that they can feel good about. You wait this election season, Hillary's minions will try and fuel a "Summer of Love" redux, replete with G7 type protests, violence, etc. Then Hillary can say.."See all the discord Trump causes." Trying to scare and blackmail all the white suburbanite drones into voting for her to restore their little world of HELOC fueled prosperity, travel soccer and cheer squad camp for little Brittany and Justin and Summer craft brew patio parties.

I read this AM that the “Biker’s for Trump” plan to be at his rallies to ward off any protestors intending on disrupting. Gonna get interesting.

That is their job. Professional agitators.

[uncitizen]

If “thousands” show up, im betting they’ll be FOR Trump, not protesting against him. Lying sacks of LSM.
