    Got plenty of other things I’d rather show up for. Trump knows what we think of him, protesting here won’t do a thing to change anything he does.

      These protests don’t really affect Trump directly but they do signal to the local governments that this is something people feel strongly about – and thus something that might cost them votes if they mishandle it. And that might affect how the EU deals with him.

      I have ALWAYS disliked the “European Union” but now there are “protest” against ME! Everybody has to BE NICE “from now on” or else more PEOPLE will PROTEST!
