As far as protests go, this is pretty straight forward. Fiona Apple composed this chant for the Women March on Washington which took place on January 21st, 2017. “We don’t want your tiny hands anywhere near out underpants” just doesn’t apply to Trump and recent efforts to re-shine the light on the sexual allegations against him, but that refrain takes on added weight with the #MeToo movement and the reckoning that is starting to take place. Also accused child molester Roy Moore just lost his Alabama Senate bid. Even though his defeat was narrow and it is disconcerting how far he got, it could still be considered a victory for human decency.
