#1 The Zizians would do that- pretend to be dead until the scary bad guys went away.

??? "...nationwide protests rage against Trump."

It seems Mr. Carville might have developed Camera Attention Deficit Disorder or may be Dementia?

Hell if anything, It's Mass Support for Trump's MAGA agenda by many on BOTH sides...

Yes !!!
Some more quietly than others, but still factual polls show support.

#4 Lots of nice protest photos at The Atlantic. Austin has a nice big crowd. LA has a bunch of foreign flags. #13 Harrisburg PA not so impressive.

#5 Fortunately, the screaming Left will not comply. When has the Left (not to be confused with classical liberals) ever voluntarily given up power?

#6 Two protests are not nationwide you idiots. I think that is best for you to sit down and shut the fuck up. Every time the left opens its mouth the public remembers what a bunch of radical morons you all are.

#7 By "play possum", does he mean hang by their tails and eat bugs and worms?

#8 So I went to Bobby's link and saw a bunch of Democrat apparatchiks carrying signs with some of the most inane slogans anybody can imagine.

Hands off my right

Or

When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace again.

Or

Defend Democracy

Or

Beware the Hair

OK, those are very nice sentiments. But, specifically, what are they protesting? Do they think Trump loves power more than Obama? How can they quantify such a thing? I don't get it.

And don't get me started again on foreign flags. Nothing triggers me more than foreigners coming into this country and trying to tell us what to do.

#9 Lots of nice protest photos at The Atlantic.

Most of the photos are narrowly shot to hide how small the crowds are — a few hundred to a few thousand at best, it seems to me. And most of the crowds appear to be entirely white — not exactly a broad slice of America.

Preciesly the opposite of the crowds they used to whip up, back when USAID was handing out money freely and racism was a word to cow the normies with.
