You know what’s Not on Roids, apparently? Unbridled frustration. Because lets be honest, People are angry isn’t exactly a groundbreaking observation. But its the headline coming out of Victorville, where hundreds (and reportedly 1,000!) gathered recently to yell at the sky and wave signs about… well, you know. President Trump.
It seems some folks find his policies less than agreeable. Healthcare? Cruel! Immigration? Terrifying! Basic civil rights for LGBTQ+ individuals? Apparently under threat. One demonstrator, Lillie Scheu, is genuinely upset that her neighbor was deported – understandable, I suppose. And Beverly Heath? She’s practically living in a dystopian nightmare, fearing for the next generations basic civil rights.
The level of commitment to this anger is impressive. We’re talking inflatable giraffe costumes (Mike Gilmore traveled all the way from Barstow!), T-rexes, unicorns…the whole menagerie of frustrated feelings. Someone even brought a drum! And chanting? Oh yes, they chanted. “Hey hey, ho ho, Donald Trump has got to go.” Very creative.
They’re claiming fascism and an authoritarian style of leadership, all while conveniently sidestepping the fact that they also had volunteers handing out water and a crossing guard making sure nobody got run over. Its anger…but organized anger! You gotta admire the logistical planning, even if you think their grievances are a tad dramatic.
