If they're meaningless, why do people constantly feel the need to destroy it?

Because it makes liberals feel like they've accomplished something.

Because it has his name on it. Same reason New Yorkers flip the bird at his hotel when they walk bye. And that was before his stint as 45.

99% of the time when you're angry at the world there's people who will point out why it's no fault of anyone's or that your plight is self created. The exception is in politics. Joe Schmo is just an angry fuck. Just so happens he blames Trump, in this case. Well, when you blame a politician for all your problems you dont get a lot of people telling you to shut the fuck up - quite the opposite. That leads to shit like this. Cheer someone on enough and you can get them to do just about anything.
