Perhaps, just perhaps, the fact that so many people are protesting should mean something... Especially if Trump is supposedly returning power to the people - doesn't that mean he should, I dunno, listen to them?
well than dont call them peaceful protests. Call them what it is. A violent anarchy against democratically elected US president.
Trump ... isn't a "democratically elected" official
Perhaps that is because the USA ain't no democracy?
The us articles of confederation preceded the constitution which was intended to strengthen the national/federal government.
The drafters of the constitution feared rule of/by the mob so worked against developing a democracy. (if memory serves)That is fairly well described within the federalist papers, esp. federalist 10.

Well, given that the US president has said "I'll beat the crap out of you" "Part of the problem ... is nobody wants to hurt each other anymore" "The audience hit back and that's what we need a little bit more of" "In the good old days this doesn't happen because they used to treat them very, very rough" "If you do [hurt him] I'll defend you in court, don't worry about it" "knock the crap out of them, would you? Seriously." "Maybe he should have been roughed up because it was absolutely disgusting what he was doing." "I don’t know if I’ll do the fighting myself or if other people will."well than dont call them peaceful protests. Call them what it is. A violent anarchy against democratically elected US president.
As we have seen now for several consecutive elections, the difference between the two Parties in actual governance is dramatic and significant.Perhaps, the real damage is done by the 2 party system which is tweedism incarnate.
