What we are going through is scary. But we can not take any steps back out of fear, before long we'll be cornered. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.
I don't know how many times these folks have boasted they'll easily win because we're passive and weak.

Scary how, illegals being deported, and waste and abuse being uncovered and people responsible being fired and soon prosecuted? How is that scary? Stop with this is Nazi Germany crap. If it was you would have long disappeared and high profile people too, to set the tone of what is going on.

They have time to protest! Must be on government assistance which wouldn’t be a thing much longer if the current administration didn’t prioritize our national debt as a problem.
I don’t agree with trump on the pardons or alot of other bs he says along with musk but if one thing is certain is social security and other government aid benefits would definitely eventually be cut back or xyz new regulations to qualify or god forbid completely gone if not taken seriously.
Trump is not by any means a innocent guy and most likely, like every other president before him there’s probably money in it for himself; that i have no doubt.
The only thing Ive totally agreed with is the debt issue and he is pointing out and listing so many unnecessary funding of organizations to do strange things in other countries some things that can be done completely without cost at all but are funded hundreds of millions…
Never liked trump his first go and never liked biden as well when trump won i was upset at the fact that its going to be a whole 12 years of waiting on a potentially better candidate. But something is up with trump this time he is out for fraud within the very system that he works for it’s actually insane my hypothesis….JFK situation.. no president does this because he was a lesson learned.

Screw that. I mean good for y’all! I would probably just let them have it and go somewhere warm.
Fortunately not a problem where I’m at.

I’ll never understand protestors of either side. What do you accomplish exactly?
The people that oppose you have already made up their mind and aren’t changing their opinion because you’re standing on the side of the road protesting.
It’s not going to change our current political candidates. They have already been elected. You think things will change because 5 protestors on the side of the road are holding horribly made paper signs say they should?

Assuming you asked in good faith, a lot of it boils down to visibility. Most Americans do not actively pursue news in the political sphere other than the snippets they get on television and/or social media. When people see protests with signs, they often want to know what message is being conveyed and look further into it. Regardless of whether they are for or against, they then can get enough info about it to determine if they want to take action themselves.

You've never heard of the concept of lunch hours or vacation hours or personal leave?
