5. I'm currently making my sign for my 31st protest.

I went to my art supply store and decided to make a brand new template of foam core since the one I've used for 31 protests is getting dog-eared. My art looks like a tRump sign museum. Actually, two of my signs are in the Women's March museum in San Diego. They especially liked the wire hanger and the Joan Crawford reference for the pro-choice march.

I hope there is a huge turnout since it is on a Thursday evening. That could benefit some who normally can't attend weekend mass protests but it may also keep many from attending. We'll see.

I never listen to news reports' estimation of numbers. A few other people like me know how the number of events and the number of how many attended those events is always grossly underestimated.

No surprise there.....both parties control the media and that is one of the main problems for over 20 years. The corporate donors in both parties have given us team tRump. Our votes are useless as long as they continue to get more and more $$$$$ and power.
