    The Trump administration doesn’t care. They know they are unpopular but if you steal enough power, it doesn’t matter.

    That’s the problem with these protests.

      Making a real change takes a number of things, including realizing that there are enough other people that feel the same way.

      These protests will not directly lead to change, but they will help move us in the right direction. They are a necessary part.

            Not saying protesting is bad. I’m just saying Trump doesn’t care and we need to do more than have a few large protests.
