Yes! I am very proud of him. This will be his third protest, and he’s still angry with himself for not being in the women’s march, although he did see it. He went on a trip to the inauguration which was paid for before the actual election, and was still in DC to watch the women’s march. I love it when someone tries to say that the media didn’t show the crowd when it was “full.” He rolls his eyes the way only a teen can do and says, “I was there. The section before us was empty, so we moved up. Then it happened again. We kept moving up until we were practically in the VIP section and, trust me, we weren’t VIPs.” Most of the time, the person tries again, and he asks, “Were you there?” Of course, they were not. “Believe what you want, but I was there. It was pretty empty. Now the WOMEN’s MARCH, THAT was something! People for MILES!”
So far, I haven’t seen a head explode, but I’m pretty sure I’ve seen smoke!
