Grim Chieftain

Our future protests need to be much more targeted [View all]

The "No Kings" rallies were wonderful and well attended, but unfortunately had little consequence. We need to be explicit in our rallies, calling for Trump's impeachment and/or the 25th Amendment to be invoked. Public outrage, and a lot of it, is what is needed now.

This is not Trump's country, it is our country.
