That’s what this new Democratic Party is about. Let’s make sure we show up wherever we have to show up. And if you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd. And you push back on them. And you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere. We’ve got to get the children connected to their parents. I will go and take Trump out tonight! People Will Do What They Do. There needs to be unrest in the streets for as long as there is unrest in our lives. Show me where it says that protests are supposed to be polite and peaceful. If we were in high school I’d take him behind the gym and beat the hell out of him. They’re still going to have to go out and put a bullet in Donald Trump. And that’s a fact I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House, I hope Trump is assassinated.
