Where Trump goes protest follow

Zombie at PJ Media  says that attention media holds for violent protests but the greater understanding is seen in non- protests and non violent portions of protests.

Zombie has a lot of photographs over there of protestors and brings together various intermingling  efforts. He did a very good job of organizing chaos.

It is an excellent essay. Recommended.

The best summer to be anti-Trump was 2015, but then there was not much to write about, or make signs about because not much had happened in public yet just after his announcement. Most people--let allow pundits--didn't even take Trump seriously. There wasn't this foreboding dread that set in that makes people like Simon imagine that it's the summer of 1940 in Britain again.
The real summer of anti-Trump will be the summer of 2016, the centenary of the Battle of Somme. The dte is coming up fast and these days trenchant warfare has replaced trench warfare but it's still brutal and longstanding friendships and allies are dying off. It's almost like there are invisible treaties in place and that individuals are lining up according to them like little nation states.
The summer of 2016 will see an avalanche of anti-Trump media as the networks make a last ditch effort to "save the Republic for witch-it-stan, one nation underwater."

I'm predicting a smug victory for Hillary. The sheer number of rice bowls at stake may lead to people getting physically hurt, and that will shut things down very quickly.

err, I think Zombie is actually a "she" (and no, I don't mean a "he-she")

As Zombie cut his teeth on the Breasts Not Bombs protests and Castro street festivals of the early 00s, no one even comes close to his play-by-play.

I don't think Zombie built that.

virgil, why do you think that?

If Hillary is the nominee Trump will beat her easily. That is why I am starting to think she will be bypassed at the convention somehow.

Yes, a she. A slipup was made years ago back at LGF, I don't remember the exact details, allowing one to surmise her gender.

Zombies are transgender I think. As a general rule.

XRay said...

Ha, good one, Lem.

Oh Man, this is just like Metroids, the whole time you're overcoming obstacles and in the end when you finally prevail and win the game and fireworks go off you whip off your helmet and whip around your long luxurious hair and turns out you're a girl.

Don't care the gender of Zombie, still the best on the ground commentary of protests.
