No, no more protest marches - until and unless there is a general strike.

Marches achieve nothing, and we cannot afford to waste time when any minute now Trump will (unlawfully) declare martial law and send US troops to every big city.

The courts are too slow; he ignores court orders; the pace of destruction of all civil protections and rights is quickening.

He's shutting down democracy - we need to shut down the country, if only for one day!

But they have done a lot!! It gives people a sense of unity and something to do to relieve some stress!! But yes, we have got to get a strike going, but I think it needs to be at least three days, more if possible. And then a prolonged strike once we have national attention.

I do believe that about a nationwide strike, it's just a lot harder to coordinate and takes longer. In the meantime, let's have EVERYONE out in the streets wearing 8647 t-shirts. A SEA of Americans. It will still send a message, loud and clear 8️⃣6️⃣4️⃣7️⃣
