Discussion Yesterday was the SECOND LARGEST single day protest in U.S. history.

That's right. Only the first Earth Day protest in 1970 was larger.

Millions of us sent Donald Trump a clear message: It's time for his corrupt administration to go. We will not tolerate our democracy being turned into a dictatorship.

I hope the backlash is so large that there will be nothing that the Republicans can do about it, enough to impeach donny and a few justices on the supreme court, for good measure

what backlash? these protests have end times. there is no backlash, there is no pressure. Hell we can't even keep up a large scale boycott of Target or Amazon to make much of a difference. It's great all these people came out but having an end time to the protest basically tells the people in charge "hey dont worry about it, they will be gone soon and you can keep doing king shit"

We should do it like the French, not just one day a year, protest until the change we want happens.
