The Times reports that the Women’s March in DC yesterday was about three times the size of the crowd at Trump’s inauguration.
Marcel Altenburg and Keith Still, crowd scientists at Manchester Metropolitan University in Britain, analyzed photographs and video taken of the National Mall and vicinity and estimated that there were about 160,000 people in those areas in the hour leading up to Mr. Trump’s speech Friday.
They estimated that at least 470,000 people were at the women’s march in Washington in the areas on and near the mall at about 2 p.m. Saturday.
Donnie from Queens won’t like that.

It gives me hope that things might be in some sense ok… assuming the Resistance persists…
