Our future protests need to be much more targeted

[Grim Chieftain]

The "No Kings" rallies were wonderful and well attended, but unfortunately had little consequence. We need to be explicit in our rallies, calling for Trump's impeachment and/or the 25th Amendment to be invoked. Public outrage, and a lot of it, is what is needed now.

This is not Trump's country, it is our country.

1. Trump bulldozed the East Wing after No Kings

That's the only real result I'm seeing

DURec

2. They did result in a blowout blue wave election following though so there's that. 20,000,000 people protested

According to surveys- 3 times the 7,000,000 official tally

3. I agree

We just can't wait until the next election. The damage he has done in less than a year will take years to undo. He has to go now.

7. Agreed

4. But "No Kings" WAS about public outrage.

[Grim Chieftain]

5. I didn't say it wasn't

Only that our demands need to be explicit demanding his removal.

9. There were lots of people with that message -- do you plan on peeling them off or narrowing the whole?

6. Maybe we should start wearing facemasks and body armor

8. The protests gave rise to backbones in formerly jellyfish politicians.

Leaders follow when the people lead.

In that sense, a spectacular success.

10. How about marches, sit-ins and occupations?
