What it does mean is that all of us--coming from a great diversity of political perspectives--need to break out of the entrenched habit in this country of leaving politics up to the politicians and trusting in the normal political channels.
You see, there IS a way to stop them. A new kind of protest. We must step up the current struggle in the streets against the terror being unleashed against immigrants and take this further, raising the demand that The Trump/Pence Regime Must Go. As we do, we must answer the Call from RefuseFascism.org to "organize now for the time when we can launch massive, sustained nonviolent protests in the streets of cities and towns across the country--protests that continue day after day and don't stop, creating the kind of political situation in which the demand that the Trump/Pence regime be removed from power is met."
This is what we must take up together. As we do, we should to discuss and debate the roots of the problem and the solution to it--learning from each other, and learning how to unite even in the face of disagreements. Yes, we must "do it for the children." Most fundamentally, we must do it in the name of humanity.
