We need massive protestations right up until election day (#3480)

     If there is one thing at all that gets the otherwise busy or tuned out non voting citizenry engaged in politics it is massive protests and general strikes where possible. If we do not make everyday life appear as uncomfortable as it is to all of us then many of us just won't care to realize it. We must force reality on ourselves if only to make us aware of the dangerous times we are now living. the republican and trump agenda of destroying the American middle class cannot be more obvious but still too many don't or won't admit it and get up against it. Well when we put it out in front of their faces and make life a little less convenient for them then many more catch on to what is happening in real time.
     I am not talking about civil disobedience out of some petty grievance, I am talking about taking a constitutional stand to stop bigotry, prejudice and bias. We must force our response to the criminal acts being perpetrated on human beings without redress. We are talking about the taking of our futures through the diminishing of medical and financial institutional programs. We are talking about the nefarious ever widening income gap from the super wealthy in our nation and the massive majority of us regular Joes and Janes. We are talking about the criminally strategic grab for power by republicans in our national and state governments.
     We are talking about keeping our democracy and all that has been paid through blood and treasure to attain and preserve it. Our nation fought for our democracy since it's inception and since attaining it has fought to preserve it with conviction and honor. Yet now we are faced with an internal political party that is by far a minority but has allocated through deception and complacency on our part to itself the levers to maintain a minority rule over the majority. We must stop the republican party and its figureheads anyway we can through not doing the things that normalize them nor the things that justify their lies. We must take our society into our own hands and each and everyone of us must find the will to participate in the salvation of our mighty and once invincible democracy.
