It seems quiet. If you just look around in the United States every day, it seems that life goes on and the American people tolerate the second presidency of Donald Trump.
There is no unrest in the streets of the American cities and small cities. There is no violence. What we were told before the elections could happen, that society would immediately fall apart, did not happen.
Many in the media who walked from the Democratic ticket and then bowed his knee to Trump, looked around at what had to be disappointment.
The media, just like Trump, were on chaos and fear of bringing back eyeballs and breathe new life into their company after four years of struggle under Joe Biden.
Donald Trump needed chaos and fear to serve as a pretext for the consolidation of power within the executive power. The media needed chaos and fear to get their audience back.
America looks serene on the surface, but there was a calm and a growing pushback under the surface that the elites and Trump never saw.
The power and power of the opposition against Trump and the kind of board that he wants to impose on the country has risen and visibly made itself on No Kings Day.
The Protest No Kings Day is reportedly the greatest protest with one day in American history.
Data scientist G. Elliot Morris posted X:
Based on hundreds of crowd-sourced records from No Kings Day Event rise, and extrapolating for the cities where we have no data yet, it seems that around 4-6 million people have protested against Trump against Trump yesterday. Mobilized anti-Trump resistance is higher than 2017 levels.
Morris calculated that there were just over 5,000 protests against Trump in 2017. In 2025 there have already been more than 15,000 protests against Trump.
It is not only the unpopularity of Trump that feeds the protests, but the fact that protesting has changed.
One of my research specializations is popular protest and its impact on public policy.
Here I am Discussing the protests on Substack Live:
The biggest change in protesting is that the protest model has changed. In the past, the greatest protests would be kept in one location. The civil rights march on Washington, the Million Man March, veteran protests and national anti-war protests.
