Republican must be treated. Hated and shamed back in his car to hide.

The Egg was a nice touch.

Seriously if every republican was greeted with fuck you and rejection,you think they'd be as hellbent on screwing people if he couldn't walk down the street without derision and angry cat calls and fuck yous?

What if where ever the top 1percenters went they were treated the same as republicans.

It would be great if say, a barista at a coffee shop refused to serve billionaires. Or a grocery bagger didn't help the rich, likes of bezos,told him to bag it himself and take it to his own car,entitled prick..

You can find loads of videos of passers and even camp occupants being assaulted. Larry's campaign probably went there specifically because it was likely to yield a dramatic reaction.

Still, kudos to ape lady for taking a shot at the fascist.
