NO KINGS DAY

How does a protest “work?” POTUS will resign before the end of his term? Genuinely want to know what successful protest achieves.

Surprised no one is happy the orange man who gave up his billionaire lifestyle to save the world brokered peace in Gaza this week…

How do mass protests "work"? With pressure. When enabling politicians don't get reelected. When life gets unbearable for enough people that they feel they have nothing to lose.

When do mass protests not "work"? When people become complacent. When they accept the unacceptable. When it's too late.

Trump is not in charge. He's a delusional, weak old man who is a bottomless pit of attention seeking. He's happily benefiting financially from the authoritarian regime but he's not calling the shots. There are far smarter and determined people who have studied the dismantling of a democratic government. Those are the ones I fear and against whom I protest.
