12. I think a march or caravan

From Minneapolis to DC would work better.

People could join up as it moves across the country. If it goes on long enough, eventually the corporate owned media will talk about it. Then as it gets closer and closer to DC, the pedo Trump humpers will get nervous. They will cry and whine about it.

A caravan like the fake one that was coming from South America. It will make the MAGA nervous. If the pedo sends troops, the caravan can just stop and wait, until the troops allow us through. Yeah, they'll send chemicals and try to arrest us but how are they going to get everyone out of their cars, trucks, vans and caravans?

No violence necessary. No threats, just say we are going to DC to petition our government to remove pedo Trump. That's all. We just want him fired and we have to a right to express that.

Doesn't even have to be 10s of millions of people. People can join for awhile then go home and join up when it gets to DC.
