“If you’re pre-born, you’re fine. If you’re preschool, you’re fucked.”

Police in Orange County had to break up a fight between two groups of pro-Trump protestors who each thought the other group was anti-Trump.
Trump and the Turds.
Fanfare of Trumpettes.

Life imitates art! This reminds me of the scene in “Life of Brian” where the two terrorist groups bump into each other on the way to capture Pilate’s wife and end up fighting each other instead.

Who chose that photo of the police car? Torrance isn’t in OC (and it’s 37 miles away from Irvine, where the altercation occurred).
A Tragedy of Trumpers?

I assume it’s a stock photo chosen by someone who doesn’t know southern CA very well.
As an aside, when I found myself in the hospital in Chicago a few months ago I found myself having to tell the doctors and nurses I was from “near Seattle” because they had no idea where Olympia was.
I like this one, maybe with ‘trumpers.’
I was minding my own business, when suddenly a shart of trumpers came marching down the street…

It’s even closer than that. It ends with this quote:
Here was her advice to the Trump protesters:
“We have to fight for a vote at the polls. Not one another. Focus, people.”
That’s damn near a quote from that scene.
[the People’s Front of Judea are breaking into Caesar’s palace. However, they become distracted by the Campaign for a Free Galilee, a rival organisation with the same plan, and a fight breaks out]
Brian:
People, we should be struggling together.PFJ member:
[in a headlock] We are!Brian:
No, we should be rising up against the common enemy.All:
The Judean People’s Front?!Brian:
No, no, the Romans!

The article is adblock-blocked, so I didn’t read it. Great cite though!!!
I love it! Friggin morons. Or maroons.
IME most Trump enthusiasts are very forward about wearing their “colors” and signs and such. So I’m kinda surprised these groups didn’t recognize one another since they’d mostly be wearing the same “uniforms”. Unless one group was trying to be more discreet, the better to fool the opposition. But “discreet” and “Trump enthusiast” is a very narrow sliver of the Venn diagram. Hmm.
As to the stock photo from Torrance …
Used to be Irvine PD cars were all-white with a very sissy logo & slogan. So at first I thought the news media wanted a generic black-and-white and came up with Torrance more or less at random. A quick visit to the Irvine PD website tells me they now have black-and-whites.
In a humorous aside, right now (Sun at 0630 Irvine time) Google search informs me the Irvine PD is closed. They re-open on Mon at 7:30am. So if anyone here is in or near Irvine and fancies a quick smash-and-grab or a mugging or whatever, now’s the time. 25 hours from now when they first respond your trail will be nice and cold.

For a while, a town near where I live used Range Rovers as cop cars. Do you really want to advertise that you are wasting money? Maybe they got one hell of a deal, I don’t know.
They now use your basic whatever Black and White. With some Ford Explorers in the mix. It’s about 50/50.

Someone doesn’t remember their state capitols from fifth grade, do they?
I tell people I grew up “near Seattle” because no one knows where Tacoma is.
Trump and the Turds.
That was an old “do plop” group. They are remembered for such hits as “Sex and Drugs and Covfefe”, “My Daughter is Hot!”, “I Married My Groupie”, and “Pardon Me!”.
Shouldn’t that be skidding down the street?
capitols
Capitals.

That’s pretty universal. e.g.
And when talking about Wyoming, just give the general quarter of the state you are talking about… or maybe “near Yellowstone”
(In my case, more “near Devil’s Tower”, but that’s more likely to draw a blank look than just “northeast Wyoming”)
Talking to somebody within a couple counties of home, use the actual municipality name.
Unless you live in a little burgh that even people in your own county have never heard of. Then you use the name of the town next door, which not only has a rather well-rated private university and an international bike race, but is home to the biggest GIS company in the world (ESRI).
