Yep, we made him go through the back door. #Burlingame #DumpTrump

The media was reporting violence, but when I left, the only tussle was some college kids who got stuck in the hedges rushing the building. It was very peaceful otherwise.

And yes, Trump had to enter from a construction barrier via HY 101. Hilarious.

All the news headlines are about him having to be snuck in through the back. Mwahaha.



Protesters had the access road blocked from both ends with human chains and a group that was inside earlier did a banner drop.









It was a great day! A couple of arrests, and police are dispersing remaining protesters now, but I left a few hours ago. I'm proud we made that fascist run like a little fool.

Nice crowd, good mix of folks. Burlingame is famous for its Pez Museum and about nothing else. I live here, so this was a nice change of pace.

He still got in.

He still got to speak.

And the truth is, this will only make him stronger. All the Mexican flags that were visible just emboldens his racist supporters.

Trump will never forget Burlingame! You should have heard the laughter when he had to turn his motorcade around, and then head back the other way on the freeway to get behind the Hyatt.

I had one of the most fun days ever.

This makes him stronger?

Hispanics are the fastest growing segment of the population. He can insult them all he wants. It will only help democrats

Who cares about his racist supporters? The idea is to embolden the non-racists by pointing out how racist Trump is.

Trump said, "I felt like I was crossing the border."

He's such an a-hole.

Scrambling down side roads, through the dirt and grass - to get to the kitchen help door? At a Republican convention?

Priceless!

Thanks for bringing it, Starry!!!

The Trump fans on Twitter are so pissed off. We made Littlefingers look like an assclown, diving around the embankments.

Our town isn't known for much--our biggest attraction is the Pez Museum, so I was happy we did this up royally.

Some in the media are whining about abridging Trump's freedumbs.

Mr. Make America Great just got endorsed by the Grand Dragon of VA's KKK.

Some people need to be shut down, sorry.

And if Trump had a spine, he could always talk from the sidewalk, just like we did.
