Stopped by Lafayette Park for a few minutes tonight

[Recursion]

Protestors are starting the 3rd night of occupation there (this is the park just north of the White House).

This isn't remotely the largest crowd I've seen in DC but I was still really impressed. Particularly because none of the "pros" (the people who show up to every national protest all the time -- you get used to seeing them) seemed to be there. This was just a bunch of everyday people from the area. I'm really curious to see what happens to the crowd tomorrow night -- if they're still around I might stick it out there too.

1. I'm thinking tomorrow will be a different story considering the New York Times breaking news.

3. Went to a rally tonite in my very small town

We had about 25 people show up, very enthusiastic with good signs. I had participated in the march against guns a few months ago. The response from passersby tonite was far more enthusiastic - many people honked, waived, whooped and gave thumbs up. Saw no negative responses.

I think Trump has finally jumped the shark with the public.

4. When I was at the protest in San Diego tonight

I heard that a celebrity from COMIC CON is planning to have a RESIST protest on Sunday here too. I wish it were on Sat since people will be leaving Comic Con/San Diego on Sun.

5. This is great to hear! Protests tonight - already!
