It was cold and rained the entire time, but I had a great experience and met some really cool people. My sign read: "Too much shit to list" on one side and "F ELON & 47" on the other side. Some of the others I liked were: "If you can't spot the con, you are the mark. Wake up!" "That smell of a rotting Republic is MUSKy" "The Emperor's new clothes (T💩p in an orange jumpsuit)" and "Measles Are Going Around" (MAGA). The last one was written on a white board this guy bought because there is so much to protest against. I thought it was a great idea.
