We have to start somewhere, and the protests will grow steadily as people become energized, the administration's crimes grow and claim more victims, and people warm to the idea of protesting.

The real danger will be in the summer of 2026. They can't allow the Democrats to flip either chamber, and take over legislative and investigative responsibilities, so they will do ANYTHING to stop the mid-term election. Protests will be huge by then, and he will instigate violence (perhaps by using his Jan 6 goons, who owe him), then send in authorities to use more violence to suppress the violence. That will give him the excuse to declare Martial Law, and suspend elections until peace is restored. Since he cintrols the peace, that will never happen, and we'll skate right past 2028 without a presidential election.

People will scream, but the loudest voices will take up residency at the new 30,000 bed facility in Guantanamo Bay.
