About those middle fingers and thumbs down

at the protests...Remember: If they're reacting, then we are being effective!

From the town of Bothell, WA where the numbers who showed up exceeded all expectations!

1. I was in Cocoa, FL and we had many

More positive reactions than negative. Lots of people driving by honking and giving us 👍 or ✌️. I am so glad that I went.

2. Of the few I saw

I just flashed the peace sign and smiled.

3. This is the way!

We had few middle fingers or thumbs down - I only saw one and someone else saw three. That's it. We just kept waving.

FAR more waves, honking, shouting encouragement, etc. - I mean, a constant stream of cars on the busy highway and constant cheering, and the area is blue next to a purple area with plenty of rednecks driving through going to the mountains.

The issues touch everyone.

4. THUMBS DOWN?

To saving their Social Security and Health Coverage and freedom and liberty and Justice?

Blindfold me, but I will see them clear as day. People with conservative values.

There is no doubt who the good guys and the Patriots are in the land of the free.

5. I live in a tiny town in Colorado.

We greeted the skiers as they drove up and through town. Almost all of them honked and waved and yelled their support.

I saw TWO who "dissented". One shot us the finger. The other opened his window and yelled "faggots!" We all laughed and just waved at him.

It struck me that both were young, white men, though we had some young, white men in our group too.

All in all, it was a fun morning

7. I saw just a few dissenters also. young white men. gave us angry middle fingers

6. They have to know we exist!

One of the hallmarks of conservatism, I think, is a lack of perspective-taking. Especially Trumpism.

There are some places in America where we haven't even tried to compete in so long, that having a D next to your name makes you a pariah. Visibility, even on a small scale, can change that.
