With the Nov. 3 election looming, hundreds of women marched downtown Saturday morning to make their case against electing President Donald Trump for a second term.

“This is the most crucial election of our lifetime,” organizer Gianna Gizzi told a crowd of several hundred who gathered at Federal Plaza in the yearly event meant to empower woman and encourage equality.

“We’re marching for the people here and those who can’t be here,” Gizzi said.

Though this year’s march paled in comparison to the 2017 gathering that drew tens of thousands, the rally also attracted first-timers, including Michele McGowan, who said she came with a friend to let politicians know the will of the people.

“This is something we should be fighting for. Our politicians shouldn’t be choosing our fate — we should,” she said.

Police cordoned the marchers to the sidewalk as they made their way down Dearborn Street to Daley Plaza.

Marchers held signs that said, “Vote for change “ and “I’m doing this now so my future daughter does not have to.”

Elementary school teacher Lillian Puicha told the crowd that electing Trump for a second term would imperil programs like Planned Parenthood and harm a woman’s right to choose an abortion.

“Women, we are at risk of losing so much this election,” said 24-year-old Puicha, of downstate Normal.

“Empowered women empower other women,” she said. “Our bodies are ours — that’s why we’re here.”

Organizers also rallied virtually with a Zoom rally hosted by the Women’s March Chicago chapter, which included an appearance from Mayor Lori Lightfoot.

I see some of the classic printed signs of the Revolutionary Communist Party with one of the front group sites at the bottom.

[Abbeville Conservative]

She kinds of hot.

[Texas Eagle]

GAH!

So why can’t Biden or Kamala get this big a crowd _anywhere_?

I think a significant number of these womyn will be voting for the third party lefty (whoever that is).

Some wonder what the root cause of America’s downward slide is.

May I present, as evidence, Amendment 19?

[353FMG]

Best buffoon ever.

These women have had their brains deformed by libtard parents, teachers, and professors. In their warped world, up is down and down is up. You can see the signs obviously professionally printed and supplied by your local commie cell that these useful idiots are willingly carrying with their anti-American message. They even recruited a poor dog to carry their disgusting messages. REALLY screwed-up women. Anyone want to take bets that most are lesbians?

Just think about all the times you men made desparaging remarks about women who got pregnant. Then think about the times you didn’t do that about the guy who was equally and in many times more equally.

Maybe that’s why the women are marching.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

What in the world does this mean?

[Rummyfan]

Yes, the most important election of their lifetimes.

I sometimes wonder if the 19th Amendment was a good idea.

[Rummyfan]

Okay I must ask... who is holding you back?!

Just as with 'Black Lives Matter'.... Whoever said they didn't?!

"Gianna primarily represents clients who have been the victims of police brutality and officer misconduct... Before joining Kulis Law, Gianna worked at a nonprofit organization, Equip for Equality, during her first and second years of law school. Specifically, Gianna worked on the nonprofit’s civil rights team, where her passion for advocating on behalf of underrepresented communities grew."

I'm surprised an attorney can make a living from such a restricted practice.

Look at the pics. They are very white.

Remember folks, we need to vote for THIS guy because Trump “doesn’t respect women”:

Bravo!

[Rummyfan]

Of course there had to be the obligatory Handmaid's Tale reference.

And that woman in the back ground. I'll bite... What Do We Owe Each Other?!

I assume the dog is a bitch....

[Rummyfan]

Why do they worship St Ruth? She didn't give a damn about anything but her own power, prestige, and perks, else she would have retired when obozo was still president.

[grey_whiskers]

She can respect herself, but nobody viewing the booty pic will.

Full disclosure: Her sign in ten years: "Where have all the Good Men™ Gone?"

[Viking2002]

All I see are several dozen Frigid White Women and the Beta Cucks who love them. LOL!!!!!!!!

[Hypo2]

They lost a few 1000, but gained a few new recruits?

Looks like Trump will definitely lose.
