Witches gather at midnight to cast spell on Donald Trump | Daily Mail Online
People are really getting desperate. Not sure this helps their cause so much.

There was much fanfare when witches across the world - and singer Lana Del Rey - pledged to stand together and cast a spell on President Donald Trump on Friday night.
But it seems the self-proclaimed witches gathered outside Trump Tower in New York couldn't conjure up much of a crowd.
There was only a handful of people gathered outside the president's Manhattan Midtown penthouse as witches worldwide prepared to cast a magic spell at midnight.
Men and women had pledged to cast spells under the crescent moon in a bid to stop Trump from doing harm while also possibly banishing him from office.
The first one was scheduled for Friday night and is set to be followed by similar spells cast on March 26, April 24 and May 23.
While the New York turnout may not have lived up to the hype, social media was flooded with photos of witches posting photos of their set up, with many using the hashtags #bindtrump and #feb24.
Lana del Rey had earlier tweeted a photo of herself with the caption: 'At the stroke of midnight Feb 24, March 26, April 24, May 23... Ingredients can b found online.'
Her tweet appeared to be referencing the spell being shared by the witchcraft community online as they prepared to hex Trump.
Instructions on how to carry out the binding spell went viral earlier in the week and a Facebook group titled Bind Trump was set up designed to answer people's questions.
Among the objects required to complete the spell was an unflattering photo of Trump, a tiny orange candle, a Tower tarot card and bowls of water and salt.
A pin, which is used to carve Trump's name on the candle, was also required.
The instructions stated that the items should be arranged around the individual in a pleasing position along with a feather, a white candle and an ashtray or dish filled with sand.
From there, a prayer for protection was to be said by all participants before they launched into the chant, which was allegedly created by a member of a private magical order.
In one refrain, the witches were to chant: 'I call upon you / To bind / Donald J. Trump / So that he may fail utterly / That he may do no harm/To any human soul.'
The second verse tackled a different issues, with the lines: 'Bind him so that he shall not break our polity / Usurp our liberty / Or fill our minds with hate, confusion, fear, or despair.'
People are really getting desperate. Not sure this helps their cause so much.
