(52,985 posts)About a week ago I said there would likely be 1,250 planned protests and millions of marchers. Even after the protests some of the media wouldn't confirm the real numbers and said, "Hundreds of protests and several thousand protesters". The media is NOT our friend.
The senior citizen turn out was what drove this due to Social Security and health care cuts. Older people become more conservative and most seniors only focus on their own needs/issues. All the other issues like abortion rights, gun control, etc don't mean anything to them, or at least not enough for them to change parties and vote with the Dems. I have no respect for that. The Villages in FL had a protest....further proof that they are self centered hypocrites.
