So, let Trump have what he wants?
Do I really have to spell it out?
If protests did nothing they wouldn’t keep cracking down/making criminal etc. they would simply ignore them

It's part of the authoritarian playbook, that's why. They don't give a rat's ass about what the citizens do or think, they are not intimidated in the least by the millions that may march, they're doing what they're doing because...they can. They know nobody is going to stop them, and they're correct
