Show up. Bring a flag. (Stars and stripes, red, white and blue) Fly the flag upside down. (We all know what that signifies. Bring a noise maker. (to celebrate-if asked). Make enough noise so no one can hear Trump's lies. All Americans are invited to this inauguration just like every one in the past. Meet at the high ground at the Washington Monument. When we have 100,000 or so we'll start walking towards the Capitol building to make sure others in the crowd cannot hear Trump's inaugural address.
Can I count you in?

I'm trying to see if I can afford the trip but at 59 I'm not sure I'm prepared to be in a possible riot which I feel this situation could lead to.

(16,138 posts)No benefit unless we want trump and the media to shift focus away from trumps egregious cabinet picks to the terrible dangers of unruly protest crowds. The GOP can use it s a cover for Patriot Act part Iii. I don't expect them to wait long.
