5,000 (± some) dedicated people who communicated well with each other and others. Who were willing to just stay in the streets until the government changed. The only one demand given: the president had to step down.
I’ve seen revolutions start with less, but America is large.
The President isn’t the problem. He’s certainly “a” problem, but let’s not pretend that Vance is going to be any better.
Get rid of all the corrupt Republicans (redundant phrase), and you will still have MAGA, the silicon valley tech bros, a corrupt financial system, white/Christian nationalists, and the military industrial complex.
Then we have the Democrats who have proven themselves over and over again to be incapable of standing up against any of these groups.
Whatever we protest for, any result worth the effort has to address the systemic failures that led to the Trump presidency. Anything less is performative at best.
So, I’m just sort of typing without thinking about it much. But Trump will never step down, it’s an impossible demand, but it’s incendiary enough for orange face to not ignore it. This remains in the press cycle because it’s personal to him, there will be constant agitation by police and agencies against the protesters who just stay or regroup.
Assuming the original protesters stay the course, this will attract more and more participants because Trump himself, and the gop, will keep it in the news.
This is a positive growth cycle; eventually the demand will be the entire White House vacate when there enough protestors, and it’s now a revolution, peaceful it may be

You’re on that couch with us too.
I’m defending this couch from Vance.
Thank you for your service.
That’s more like it.
Hey have you seen the poop knife?

Yes but your username makes this extra funny and you extra hypocritical.
I aim to amuse as well as inform 😉
Sick excuse bro
A lone wolf looking for a pack is not a lone wolf, but a lost one.
To be clear, I’m only talking about wolves here.
How many do you think it would take?

The “Heritage” Foundation and all the tax-favored entities like it (incl. “religious” ones) will need to be dealt with.
the democratic party leadership are not just incapable, they are not on our side. They are servants of the rich.
Not all Democrats are in sync with party leadership though.
My religious friends tell me that we have their thoughts and prayers.
