It was Presidents\u2019 Day for most people, but then the left had planned gigantic mobilization of protests and riots against Trump called the \u201cNot My President\u2019s Day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the headline of the Associated Press: \u201cThousands of Demonstrators Across U.S. Say \u2018Not My President.\u2019\u201d But! But! If you go to the individual locations in this same story. In Chicago, several hundred rallied. In Washington, D.C., several hundred rallied. In Atlanta, dozens marched. Hundreds of protesters in Salt Lake City. But wait a minute. The headline says \u201cthousands.\u201d Why is this even a story? It was an abject failure! They didn\u2019t get what they thought. They wanted to replicate what happened on the weekend after Trump\u2019s travel ban was announced, that executive order.<\/p>\n<p>They wanted to replicate that. Who told you they wouldn\u2019t be able to do it? Who told you that they wouldn\u2019t be able to keep this up? And who was it that mocked me for saying it on The View? That would have been the lovely and gracious (ahem) Joy Behar, asking that of Elizabeth Fauxcahontas Warren. You know what Fauxcahontas Warren said in response to the question? (screaming) \u201cI\u2019m gonna tell you what, Rush. We\u2019re not gonna get tired of it. There\u2019s no way we\u2019re gonna get tired. You better get used to it, Rush, because here we\u2019re and we\u2019re not gonna tire.\u201d<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Well, the numbers are starting to deteriorate.<\/p>\n<p>Either they ran out of money to pay \u2019em or the transportation system broke down to get \u2019em there or else it\u2019s just starting to lose a little bit of its luster. And you know why it will? \u2018Cause it isn\u2019t affecting anything. Trump\u2019s not crying. Trump\u2019s not on TV begging them to stop. Trump\u2019s not promising to resign. Trump\u2019s out there trying to implement his agenda, which means he\u2019s not paying any attention. The worst thing can happen these people is to be ignored.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>___<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/video\/2017\/02\/21\/limbaugh-not-presidents-day-protests-abject-failure\/\">http:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/video\/2017\/02\/21\/limbaugh-not-presidents-day-protests-abject-failure\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by JEFF POOR Breitbart.com Tuesday on his nationally syndicated radio show, conservative talker Rush Limbaugh declared Monday\u2019s \u201cNot My President\u2019s Day\u201d protests to be a failure.
