Tomorrow could be the largest protest in the history of this country

I will not be surprised if 10 million plus people are in the streets.
The question is how much attention the Media will pay?
Or will we just get a mention of the marches and then interviews with Trump supporters on how they still support the bloated despot?

because that's the way the media works (or doesn't) these days.

Not that it's not enduring already but that it is the leading part of a growing, slow erosion of the forces aligned with Trump. All of those entities will feel it in the months ahead, in their pocketbooks.

They do not care about public opinion or the protests held during the weekend.

It does help mobilize people against them because these people will also go vote.

We know what effective protests look like. For example, the Orange Revolution, the arab spring, or the big protests in France. What they all have in common is that they paralyze the countries, are held during the week, cripple the economy, transportation, etc.. and cannot be ignored by the media.

We may be getting there here.

But it could have an effect on the Repukes in Congress and the election in November.
I would love to see a national strike, but I don't think it is in the American DNA.
