I just disrupted the @realDonaldTrump speech in Jamestown because nobody's racism and bigotry should be excused for the sake of being polite. The man is unfit for office and unfit to partake in a celebration of democracy, representation, and our nation's history of immigrants.

Hundreds of protestors lined the streets along Trump's path en route to the 400th Anniversary of the Joint Commemorative Session of the Virginia General Assembly in Jamestown today.(via @EmilyHolterNews)

No, I didn't recognize anybody there, how about you? Was going to touch base with you to see if you guys were going to go. Hope you guys are well.

Nor did we go. Too hot for us 2 old codgers. Besides, there was a doc appt.

It was so gratifying to see so many turn out to give 45 a proper welcome.

We're okay, hon, and hoping you folks are too.

At his interminable campaign rallies, he can control who gets in and because they're private campaign appearances and not public appearances, he can have security toss out any of the rabble who might slip through. Trump may not practice national security, but his event security is impeccable because that's something he cares about.

He was interrupted right before he was able to educate the masses on what a great job John Rolfe has been doing, and that many people don't know how great he's been doing in Jamestown.
