Burlington is a small city. It has 2 main drags. One of them is pedestrian only. They'sve already shut down the other. The BPD has had to enlist officers from neighboring departments.
Fuck the orange one.

(796 posts)Rhetorical question, I guess but really. What does he hope to accomplish with this juvenile stunt?

(796 posts)But it's so exasperating that a grown up man who claims to want to be president can pull such a juvenile stunt to disrupt a whole town but nobody there supports him. So what does that remind me of? Oh yeah, Bridgegate! But if you are Donald Trump things that will get other people into hot water only serve to get the media and his juvenile supporters to cheer him on even louder.

How cool it would be if the Burlington streets were empty tonight. Nothing would tick him off more than that.

In City Hall Park across the street from the Flynn, hundreds of demonstrators mostly anti-Trump chanted slogans such as "Deport Trump!" and "Don't give in to racist fear, refugees are welcome here." Those at the front of the line awaiting access to the speech largely pro-Trump countered with calls of their own, such as "Build a wall!" and "USA! USA!"
