The video above is from a protest in Charlotte, North Carolina earlier today. Like many people in this country, these protesters are tired of the chaos & cruelty that comes with living under the Trump regime.
An economy rigged for billionaire elites
A trail of broken promises to fix the affordability issue
Weaponization of the Justice Department to prosecute his enemies
Eradication of our school systems
Dismantling of our public health apparatus
Defunding of SNAP benefits to starve the poor
Defunding of Medicaid benefits to tear healthcare away from the most vulnerable
Threatening several countries with war, for literally no apparent reason
Deploying his secret police into our streets to terrorize us
Enabling & directly funding a (ongoing) genocide in Gaza
…Let us not forget his coverup of the Epstein Files (for reasons that seem so obvious).
Life under Donald Trump is a nightmare for most working class Americans & things are only getting worse as 2025 rolls along.
The question isn’t whether or not we should be protesting in the streets, it’s what else can we do?
To which I ask that question to you now - in your opinion, besides protesting, what else can we do to push back against the Trump regime?
