Millions across the US rallied against Trump's authoritarian agenda in nationwide No Kings protests, featuring speeches, performances, and massive crowds.
Unfortunately with a population of almost 350 million people, it will take more like 12 million to hit the 3.5% (not 3%), so there’s still a ways to go. Each one has been bigger than the previous one so maybe it’s possible, especially if the consequences of this idiotic war get really bad for the average USian–and I don’t see how that won’t get way way worse.
The other thing about that paper with the 3.5% thing, it was talking about sustained protests, not just one every few weeks or months.
On the bright side I don’t see how trump will be able to pretend to be compos mentis for even another year, let alone the rest of his term. But on the dim side, his regime will remain in place even if he’s goes tomorrow.
