43. IMPACT - that anit-war demonstrations did not get Nixon out

And they would not get Dolt45 out today.

Investigating the criminal acts of Dolt45 and his minions is our best chance of getting him out. Pressuring for access to the documents that can prove those wrong doing are our best chance. WE will not get them with the demonstrations but those demonstrations put pressure on our elected officials and on reporters to attempt to get them.

"It's the cover-up." and "Follow the money."are as true today as they were in 1972-3.
