The ultimate insult to the young people marching today is a president

and a congress that skip town to avoid hearing the voices of the heartbroken who demand change that could save lives. America needs a makeover in its legislative house. That is nothing new but I think an awakening is going t happen. MARCH ON, MY BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN, MARCH ON!!!!!

They'll have to march on the golf course to get his attention.

He won't run or hide, he'll just ignore the marchers.

He didn't push hard because he didn't want to stay in town this weekend.

The sad part is, even if there wasn't a march protesting his policies, he'd still go out of town since we have a pResident who thinks he works 9-5 with weekends off.

But I'm willing to bet that both of our senators will be out to support the marchers.

I hope someone in the media makes this comparison just to irritate Trump. And when you add the number of people marching around the country, the total may be well over a million (and I will be one of them). I’m not on Twitter, but perhaps someone could collect the totals and gloatingly tweet them to the idiot in the White House.
