Remember the woman who gained national attention when she smiled through being pelted with eggs? The San Jose protest where eggs and fists were tossed at Trump supporters has just been pushed into the national spotlight again….for good reason.

The Trump supporters were attacked and assaulted in many other towns across America: Remember San Diego where eggs were thrown at Trump supporters?
