    Nah it doesn't hurt their cause at all. Did the Tea party protests and gatherings hurt their cause? Looks like it worked in the end.

    The protesters in NYC don't have a permit to protest on a public street. Does that matter?

    What's sad is that they don't really even have a message, they are just angry little children stomping their feet and they aren't quite sure why.

    The protests here are going to be nauseating. I'm seeing people RSVP on facebook to stuff at the mall and white house like crazy. Come on people, let it go.

    Not really, no. Protesting isn't really about finding a quiet corner and doing it.

    Talking about the recent Tea partiers. You know, the whole Obama is a muslim people?

    Say it over and over again. You can't force people to like Trump, he's one of the most unfavorable presidents to ever be elected. There will be no 'unity' during his term.

    I guess the DNC still had some unused campaign funds. I wonder if those protestors are getting $1,500 each or if the price has dropped by now.

    Your delusional, more than half of the country despises Trump. Loathes him. You're just going to have to live with that. Just like democrats had to live with people hating Obama.

    You don't have to like him, he didn't win a popularity contest.

    Then why even have laws? Block streets just because your party lost an election .

    Christ.

    Edit NM. I'm deleting twitter.

    The shooting in downtown Seattle appears to be unrelated to the #notmypresident protest.
