It's obvious that congress needs to be pressured to do the right thing

so isn't it time to mobilize and organize a "Impeach Trump" demonstration in Washington DC? I don't know how to go about doing so, but it would be great to schedule one for the week that congress returns from their summer vacation.

There was an article today about protesting again like in Puerto Rico...

"A poll taken this month by the Washington Post/ABC News showed that 37 percent of American adults currently support beginning impeachment proceedings. A survey released by Gallup on July 3 revealed that 45 percent of Americans, including 81 percent of Democrats, say the president should be impeached—a greater share than that which backed impeachment proceedings when officials began pursuing impeachment for Presidents Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton."

"The Puerto Rican people showed how you impeach a bigoted politician: Don't wait for politicians—organize general strikes and get in the streets!" wrote author and educator Jesse Hagopian. "It's time we show Trump where the real power is!"


*****On MSNBC today a woman was saying that if we had protests that really did mobilize most Americans, millions in all cities at the same time and not a just several of thousands, that we would get a positive response but our citizens just aren't there yet. I am frustrated beyond words!!!!!!!
