Not only were they clever, creative and artistic but they were constructed to LAST! They really know how to protest in other countries. I am impressed. Our protest skills are woefully behind. I've been to over 25 in the last 2 1/2 years and I am learning what works and what doesn't through personal experience.

Hundreds of comedians and editorial cartoonists will have some hard times, I'm afraid.

And here we thought that Bush* was a gift to comedians! With Trump, all they have to do is show footage or quote him - the jokes just write themselves!
