Wouldn't it be more impactful if the Democrats all go to the inauguration, but protest

in a united manner using a powerful, silent, visible signal to the nation and world?

If they don't go, Drumpf will just fill their seats with Rwers. No one will notice.

I think every one of them should go, each wearing an American Flag pin turned upside down.

THE UNITED STATES FLAG CODE. Title 4, Chapter 1. § 8(a)The flag should never be displayed with the union down, except as a signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or property.

2. Not at all.

[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]Their deliberate absence will speak louder than any protest possibly could.

7. I've got people saying it's a bad idea, but no one saying exactly why.

I could be wrong, but I'm not going to know that from someone saying, "Um, no," or similarly lethargic snark.

8. american purists

who have denied racism, inequality both cultural, social and economic just so things go on as they always have for generations in this country..... This country will be in serious distress after 20th of January especially when trumpfuhrer brownshirts, both civilian and under badge and weapon, take to the streets "to make ameriKKKa great again".

9. There are loads of those out there. Fuck them.

Not who I'm talking about, though. The DUers who responded here to my suggestion (or who read it, thought it was no good, but didn't bother saying so or why) aren't deniers of the racism, inequality, etc. They just think my idea's a bad one, but have failed to elucidate their objections.
