Protesting is so, so important.

It’s listed right in the Constitution.

Thank you to everybody who showed up, I wish I could have been there.

I remember, years ago, long before the Tea Party movement, Rush Limbaugh gave his analysis of why Conservatives don’t hold protest rallies..... The reason why I remember it is because, as much as I love Rush, I totally disagreed with him on this

He said words to the effect that “protesting is not who we Conservatives are, it’s not what we do”

And I thought to myself, this is a big mistake, for two reasons

1) It lends credence to the idea that Liberals are more altruistic, because they are willing to take to the streets to fight for what they believe in

2) This perception allows Republican politicians to think that they can screw over their constituents, because they’re too busy paying attention to their private lives, and not really that concerned or passionate about what’s going on in government

72 million love Trump. Biden voters voted because they hate Trump. Love is stronger than hate.
