#2 Similar demonstrations were held in several major cities, including Los Angeles, Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,, and Boston, Massachusetts.

So, why should Trunks care? You don't vote for them. Free Stuff! Free Stuff! Free Stuff! (using other peoples' money)

There's no reading in protesting. It's just dog whistles and stirring up the mob to protest everything Trump. From the interviews I have seen with the rent-a-mob, they are ill-informed to the extent many don't even know what they are protesting. You can bet Soros' money is behind these protests.

No - those would be the homeless guys near the Park Street T stop, near Boston Common. I'd rather talk to those guys than the professional protesters inhibiting traffic in front of the State House. Which I've done on occasion - give a guy $2 for a smoke, chat with him while I smoke it, then take off before he tries to hit me up for more cash.

#12 Revenue collected per square mile inside the city limits vs cost per square mile to operate. The "black hole sponge factor" will become readily apparent.
