They sure didn't make their own signs. I wonder who did. And how appropriate that they're carrying pacifiers. I guess the irony is lost on them.

Your damned president couldn't pay enough people to protest for him? You should have had your protesters to make their own banners like the resisters did!!!

You asholes didnt give Obama a chance, so STFU!

They only have American Express and Discover cards. They heard they couldn't get off the plane if they didn't have Visas.

I'm sorry that wasn't a fully formed joke. My heart just isn't in it after ...you know...Bowling Green.

I crack up whenever I hear one of them say we're acting like babies. Who still can't get over the inauguration size crowd, and whose was bigger??! Plus, tRUMP is the guy who said had Hillary won, that means the election was rigged....now don't tell me that isn't acting like a baby!! And, we know he would never have let that go! Had Hillary won, we would still be talking about rigged elections (though we are anyway even though tRUMP won, but that's besides the point!).

Actually, that's not besides the point (read my previous post)! Even though tRUMP won, he is acting like a baby and wants a recount because he didn't win the popular vote!

I love how they got out a few barricades and penned them in together so they could pretend it was really a protest and a crowd.

Adorable.

NOT! Of course they didn't. I'm eager to keep showing MORE rage than he and his crowd showed Barack Obama.
