As a french guy, i call that a nice view. And if some of you are tempted by the last trend from Paris (robbing museum in broad day light) there is a guillotine at the Mucem in Marseille.

See this something Trump doesn't understand, these people are All about America All about democracy.
If he was doing his job correctly ALL these people would be praising him instead of wishing he quit.
There's no money when people can't work.

What's the big thing being floated along the crowd? Thought maybe a banner, but it seems blank.
heyscot
That's a copy of the constitution. They let us all sign it. It wasn't blank, just can't see it from this distance.

This gives me hope.

Too cool. Too quote Zac De La Rocha, "Yo, we gotta take the power back!"

Those people are coming straight out of the lake. You done fucked up if you pissed off the Lake People.

Amazing; well done Chicago ✊

The attacks on the Capital seem nonchalant, given the deaths that resulted. How can you govern a nation, seeing this, and not question your ideology?
VilhelmSvanr
What?

Well said

Hopefully maga people are now like that one Nazi in Hellboy like "are we the bad guys?"
VilhelmSvanr
No they just laugh at you liberals for fighting yourselves lol
eikpre5524
Please man you can't even explain how liberals are fighting themselves. There is nothing in your brain that works
glovelyday
So proud of you guys. Much love. Let's keep it up! We will not go quietly into that dark night (sorry Dylan Thomas).
VilhelmSvanr
What does this even do? Lol people see this & brush it off..other than liberals 🤣
timGiraffeBeast
Yes
FentuckyCriedKhicken
That trump guy just twitted something like thanks to all these people to make sure there’s no king to replace him, so he can still be your leader or something. It’s a level 10 mockery. Perhaps the slogans are not too clear, why not just say trump is in the Epstein list he’s a pedo he should be arrested, no trump!
VilhelmSvanr
Because every politician/celebrity you can think of is also in the files. Either that or it is all made up just to keep people distracted. Best thing is to just forget it ever existed. Probably wasnt real anyway

Fuck yes!!!! Chicago!!! Go!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for quoting Sandburg!

Ryne Sandberg was truly one of our greatest thinkers.

I think the poem resonates event today. Chicago is complicated. A lot of beauty in Chicago, a lot of pain.
I would love if the President of the United States actually wanted to help w/ the gun violence in Chicago or help with the generations of systemic racism. And while I don't know how to fix complex issues like those (and more), I'm sure as shit that Texas National Guard members who work a day job as a car mechanic or accountant, has absolutely no clue of what Chicago needs

But then what? Don't get me wrong, this is amazing and shows unity in a spectacular way. Why should trump care? What is the next step?
VilhelmSvanr
Nothin bc nothin will change until his term is over
Excludos
If he gets his way, his term won't end until he dies
Excludos
So the idea of these massive protests isn't to make Trump care. Like you say, he doesn't have the capacity for that. The point is to make everyone else care. Slowly, more pressure builds up towards the top, until the people around him outs him from his throne. This takes a lot, but simultaneously less than you might think. Once the country stands still, pockets start hurting, politicians are worried about re-elections, etc. people with power will start pushing for a resolution

Whether it be Chicago Topeka Birmingham fight fascism fight orange and his (impossibly I thought) but is happening nazi disease
VilhelmSvanr
You are an id*ot 😂
WarthogExtraordinaire
Now march on DC and kick that orange bastard out that's allot more tourist than the last time...
KilroyLichking
my thoughts exactly this was a tourist parade not a protest. a protest would have shut the city down and not have been dispersed until demands were addressed
Srcsqwrn
So, I'm curious: What are the demands of the organizers?
BrendonB
I think they just hate kings, what king or who? Nobody knows, there are no kings

I don't think they thought it through past "Orange Cheeto Man Bad".
Srcsqwrn
I mean; cheeto man has done many horrendous things. So, I assume there is reasoning and demands. I'm not American, though. So I dunno specifically what it is about.
hsalonen3000
I am almost willing to believe, you guys wouldn't vote for Trump anymore.
VilhelmSvanr
I dont think anyone would have voted for him at all if there was ak actual competent candidate that could be voted in. But nah this country is rigged/corrupt in every aspect. I voted for him twice lol and im not even republican
seehemewe
Approval rating is still 40%, so we're far from out of it. Further, MAGA / GOP seems fine w/ ignoring the Constitution and letting Trump run in 2028. They had no problem w/ ignoring the 14th amendment, so voting alone won't cut it, we need action like this, and more importantly tens of millions of people doing "small" things like running food banks or helping w/ paperwork or babysitting so parents can go out and protest. America will only be saved by Americans working to save our democracy
scoutMoonDiver
Statistics can be manipulated
seehemewe
Sure. But I strongly believe that reality we face is that there is a HUGE percentage of the voting population in America that is seeing everything Trump is doing and approves of it. 40% approve, 5% unsure, 55% disapprove, in my opinion, isn't enough to overpower how much the GOP as taken control of gerrymandered districts & the courts. Get to 75% disapprove and now it is much harder to keep up the veil of democracy https://www.economist.com/interactive/trump-approval-tracker

I love this! I hope trump is having an awful day
VilhelmSvanr
He is wealthy and the leader of American twice over now..I dont think he gives a s**t about these petty protests tbh
DragonAreReal
He posted an AI vid on "Truth" Social after the protests of him in a fighter jet with "KING TRUMP" on the side flying over protestors in NYC while literally shitting on them, and many thousands of people protesting isn't "petty"
BrendonB
He laughs it off, and he is still all of those people's and your President
DragonAreReal
I don't really care if he's my president, he's still a piece of shit. Louis XVI was the leader (king) of France during the French Revolution, but the people still killed him because he was a piece of shit. I don't care if Trump is the president, I still won't listen to him or respect him, and I want him to, at the very least, to not have power anymore.
Neednoggle
I assure you he's not my president. My country doesn't have a president.
scoutMoonDiver
I hope all of his days are awful
Rubyrose99
I hope he stops having days

Even better
