I can't find a ton of info about the protest, but this was a great read!

So funny how MAGA says, "Everyone loved him before he was president!" When there were protests in 1989, Biff from Back to the Future was based off of him, and Sesame Street had "Ronald Grump." Amomg others.

Would be cool to get some Dorothy's out on the 19th in honor of 1989 Dorothy!! Some remakes of the signs would be 10/10. 👌🏻

When I tell people that NYC has hated the man since the 80s, they think I’m exaggerating. He’s also well known for stiffing his contractors, requiring them to take him to court for non-payment. He’s been part of over 4,000 lawsuits.
