Photos at the link (local left wing bird cage liner). The usual assorted leftist oafs, dolts and churls protesting.

I recognize some of them as the same protestors who crawled out from under their rocks when Trump was campaigning.

Cant't wait for the campaign to get into full swing. Let's get ready to rumble!

I mean shouldn’t there be some racism to protest against?

I sure wish these people would quit monkeying around!

This too shall pass ......

Liberal mindless Dems needs issue to trumpet. This is the latest. No one gives a crap about their concerns.

What thy do give a crap about is their take home pay, taxes and health care along with keeping illegal scum from raping and mudering them and their kids.

Racism - as defined by the low-T, no intelligence, marshmallow major, cannot do anything useful to civilization media.

Shove it up your computers, d*mbass journalists.

Too bad someone didn’t throw a “monkey wrench” into their “apish” activities. BOOM! Racis’ comment.

[FirstFlaBn]

Let’s come up with some more ‘De’ examples to help them out.

OK, I’ll start.

De Camptown ladies sing dis’ song, Do Dar, Do Dar,
Camptown racetrack five mile long, Oh De Do Dar Day.

I doubt it. The Trump hating GOP big donors were already looking of for a reason not to financially support DeSantis. Now they have it. I expect Scott to run as fast as he can away from DeSantis, too. The real problem here is that DeSantis won’t have any cover on his flanks now. This will be a close race and that could decide it.

"No monkey business, you two", said the mother. Does that mean "don't fool around" or "don't act like black people"?

"Not sure what's wrong, but I'll monkey around with it and see if I can get it to work", said the repairman, er, person. Does that mean "I'll try some random stuff and see what happens" or does it mean "don't act like black people"?

This article reads like it was written by the Daytona Beach News Journal.

Monkeying something up or throwing a monkey wrench into the works is a common term and has nothing to do with race, but has something to do with the failures of communism in these comments.

I counted them - 12 fat people. 12 fat people hold a rally and it makes the news.

They'll ignore 250,000 on the mall in Washington if it's a pro-life rally, but 12 fat people on some highway median, and they get news coverage.

Keep this stuff up and Speed Weeks will have to be cancelled!

Barack Obama in 2008: Both Parties ‘Have Monkeyed Around With Elections’

By Robert Kraychik - Breitbart.com
(Video at link)

Barack Obama warned supporters that politicians had “monkeyed around” with elections, during a campaign speech at Kent State University in New Philadelphia, Ohio, on September 3, 2008.

Then-Senator Obama (D-IL) said (0:29 in the video at the link): “I come from Chicago. It’s not as if it’s just Republicans who have monkeyed around with elections in the past. Sometimes Democrats have, too. You know, whenever people are in power, they have this tendency to try to tilt things in their direction.”

Obama called for establishing a “voting rights division” within the Department of Justice (DOJ) to combat “voter fraud” and what he said were efforts to “discourage people to vote.”

On Wednesday, Florida Republican gubernatorial nominee Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) advised Floridians not to “monkey this up” by selecting a “socialist agenda” via a Democrat governor.

News media outlets such as The Hill and CNN framed the comment as racial, given that DeSantis’s Democrat opponent, Andrew Gillum, is black. CNN published two articles headlined: “Florida’s GOP gubernatorial nominee says a vote for his black opponent would ‘monkey this up’,” and “GOP candidate accused of using racist term,” both casting DeSantis’s “monkey this up” remark as racist.

Gillum made the most of the narrative, saying Floridians’ “rich diversity” would compel the Sunshine State’s residents to reject “racists” and “misogynists.” And Florida Democratic Party Chairwoman Terrie Rizzo tweeted, “It’s disgusting that Ron DeSantis is launching his general election campaign with racist dog whistles.”

DeSantis later expanded on his comments via his campaign’s communications director, who said, “Ron DeSantis was obviously talking about Florida not making the wrong decision to embrace the socialist policies that Gillum espouses. … To characterize it as anything else is absurd. Florida’s economy has been on the move for the last eight years, and the last thing we need is a far-left democrat trying to stop our success.”

[DoughtyOne]
