Thing is, if there's one person who would be the least impressed, affected or otherwise influenced by protesters, it would be President Donald J. Trump.

I completely disagree with this. Trump hates the idea that people don't like him. It's why he has to believe that he won the popular vote, why he couldn't bring himself to fire Lewandowski, etc. He cannot stand the idea that people don't like him, so he creates a reality where they do. He doesn't actually care about these people so much as he cares that these people adore him.

I didn't make myself clear: Trump's decision-making process is not going to be affected by protesters.  He's going to do what he wants to do--and if there's anybody that questions it, he doubles down and does what wants to do and then take it to 11, just to make a point.

Yip he will just dig his heels in.

Oh, he won't be in charge after the first nuclear war.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I can't even laugh at this shit any more.

It's only the beginning, so maybe it'll get even worse to the point that it leaves self-parody and enters a new ethereal plane of logic? :unsure:

Why, war game instead or just sit on your couch picking your nose.

I have 20 years in the infantry, the second generation standing upright and have better punctuation than you. Clean up your act lawyer.

So easily goaded. No wonder the FSB went all in on the asset.

Did you guys read the article? The picture that he's posting in the news room is actually of the Women's March, not his inauguration. :lol:
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

I thought it was really though that date was a mistake and/or data when photographer did his digital editing or some such.

Ah, okay. Typo on the part of the photographer. The way the image was taken, the crowd would look that full, too.

Yeah, I thought real 'trick' was just that they cheated the angle.
