When was the last time it worked?

@MistyCee Thank you for your reply I think that is my point. If it is not working and it is making it harder for people to get along it is damaging relationships why continue to do it.

@Capt11 Well, one reason is that protests, over time, can change public opinion. People tune in and see what the fuss is all about, and some of them may decide the protesters have a point.

There is a downside, of course, and that's what worries me personally. Trump's rants about angry liberal mobs are the flip side of things.

Personally, I think most of the protesters here seem pretty misguided, but I think its a good thing that people who feel like their voices aren't being heard are free to try and make noise about it.

As for relationships, that's part of the problem. Many protesters, and a lot of Americans don't feel much of a relationship with this administration to begin with. Things are pretty bad right now, and reaching out across the aisle or stepping out of line is politically toxic. See what's happening with Murkowski and the Alaska Republicans, for example.

@MistyCee Your post has some very valid points it was very well crafted. I see what you are saying and it makes me a little bit uncomfortable, to see the misguided protest. I appreciate your perspective have a great day.
