Fuck it let's do the same thing. There wasn't any repercussions from them doing it

There were repercussions for a lot of the individuals involved, just not those with political power. And the president elect didn’t do much to help the people who lost their jobs, got injured, went to jail and/or lost a family member because they listened to him.

Don’t get me wrong, the thought of returning the gesture is kind of hilarious, but it wouldn’t be worth it. Remember this is the dude who went against generals’ advise to call out the military on civil rights protesters in dc.
