Thank you for the clarification. I'm very glad that they're protest's, but it's a shame that the news media doesn't report about that.

I'm very glad that they're so many protests. I live in Europe and searched the news for protests in the USA but didn't found information about it, except the protests against Tesla dealerships.

Keep fighting!

Why are there no large demonstrations in the USA against Donald Trump's policies? (feddit.org)
 

I'm increasingly wondering why people in the US aren't taking to the streets in their thousands.

I'd also like to share a poem by Martin Niemöller, who was a pastor in Germany during the Nazi regime and even supported the Nazis at the beginning:

First they came for the Communists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Communist

Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Socialist

Then they came for the trade unionists And I did not speak out Because I was not a trade unionist

Then they came for the Jews And I did not speak out Because I was not a Jew

Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me (Martin Niemöller)
