SIXTEEN CONSECUTIVE DAYS OF ANTI-TRUMP PROTESTS - - - A NEW AMERICAN RECORD

Thanksgiving Day appears to have been the first day since the election without a specific "Anti-Trump Protest" in our country. The first wave of civil discontent appeared late on Election Day on the west coast, and continued on a daily basis across the USA until Wednesday.

Not that protests haven't occurred this holiday weekend, but many events are now being described with a specific focal-point other than Trump. They appear to be "spin-offs" from the main show.

The mainstream media basically stopped covering the anti-Trump protest movement after only a few days, but the events continued until November 23. That makes 16 consecutive days, a new American record for openly-expressed public dislike for an incoming President.

Never in our history have anti-President protests started so soon, on Election Eve, much less carried on daily for more than two weeks.

Watch for the multiple media reports that "the protests have stopped" or that "anti-Trump movement is losing steam" or similar claims. This could not be further from the truth. 

The anti-Trump movement is actually GAINING STRENGTH as multiple political factions are coming together under the realization that, indeed, Americans are STRONGER TOGETHER than we are apart.

No estimates have been offered on the total number of street protesters against Trump this month, but I will give an educated guess that between 500,000 and 1,000,000 people were in public since the election, marching in the street, carrying signs, or picketing a specific location. That's a lot of people.

But the really big anti-Trump protests are yet to come.

December and January will bring the largest anti-new-president demonstrations in the history of the world:
  • December - Trump "Victory Tour":  Trump already misses the adoring masses from his ugly campaign, and he wants to stay in the limelight. So his team is organizing a series of rallies in states that he "won" over the next few weeks. We wrote about his plans here. This tour will include specific date/time/location information that allows Americans a great opportunity to show up with a purpose.
  • January - Trump Inauguration Ceremonies:  Multiple protests are in the organizational phase for Inauguration Day, on January 20. The previous records for anti-new-president demonstrations were 60,000 against the second President Bush, and 20,000 against President Nixon. Forecasts call for many times those numbers of people to stand up against the Trumps.
  • January - First Day of Presidency:  The "Million-Woman March" has been planned for the day after the inauguration, otherwise known as the "first day in office". Satellite locations for this effort have been identified in the midwest and western parts of the USA, but there is a seriously strong chance that a full ONE MILLION WOMEN will be surrounding the White House on January 21.
So the anti-Trump movement has gotten off to a rip-roaring start, putting Americans in great position to oppose Trumpists and their Nazi associates every day until Trump leaves office, by whatever means necessary.
