Re Don’t go:
I disagree with you. Trump the Titan asked us to come. He asks so little of us. He will try to keep us safe. Of course, have a plan, but stay with the large group, in the middle of the crowd, and go home before dark, and you should be fine. This ISN’T a picnic and it IS time to stand up for what you really believe in.
For some reason, it’s important to him. We don’t know why yet. But we do know one of the only leaders who’s fought for us, in our entire lifetimes, has asked it.
Come all ye young rebels and list while I sing
For love of one’s country is a terrible thing
It banishes fear like the speed of a flame
And it makes you a part of the patriot’s game
My name is O’Hanlon, I’ve just gone sixteen
My home is in Monaghan and where I was weaned
I’ve been told all my life cruel England’s to blame
So I am part of the patriot’s game
It’s barely two years since I wandered away
With a local battalion of the bold IRA
I’ve read of our heroes, I’ve wanted the same
For the play up my part in the patriot’s game
This Ireland of ours has for long been half free
Six counties are under John Bull’s tyranny
And most of our leaders are greatly to blame
For shirking their part in the patriot’s game
They told me how Connolly was shot in his chair
His wounds from the battle all bleeding and bare
His fine body twisted, all tattered and lame
They soon made me part of the patriot’s game
Now I am dying, my body all holes
I think of those traitors who bargained and sold
I’m sorry my rifle has not done the same
For the Quislings who sold out the patriot game
Reading that gave me chills.

I agree wholeheartedly, Melian. And I also am convinced the number of supporters for the President will be so overwhelming that any opposition that may show their faces will be inconsequential. I have not confirmed yet but am hoping to be one of those supporters in DC on the 6th.
I suspect it isn’t so important to the President as much as he desires us to share in his victory celebration. It’s like getting invited to the party of the decade...
