It seems to me there's a decided lack of clarity, resulting in aimless messaging. Why are you protesting? What are you protesting? What are your specific goals? If I could wave a magic wand and get someone that matters to listen, here would be my suggestions for issues that need to be explicitly focused on and enunciated. I'm no pro-writer so it's not pretty, I'm going for the thoughtful, perhaps even provocative, let others pretty it up.
Come on, this is for keeps, enough patty-cake - we must step it up, or we will get crushed!

What about demanding, Merrick Garland get his Supreme Court Vote January 3rd?
What about drawing attention to,Trump’s Russian obligations and him surrounding himself with “friends” of Russia?
What about drawing attention to Trump’s myriad business entanglements with enemy nations?
What about drawing attention to the fact that Trump’s win was hinged on a campaign of malicious wanton smears based on deliberately fabricated lies? (With Russia doling out the PR, through the Alter-reality of Bannon and Breitbart’s lie factory). WHY HAS THAT BECOME ACCEPTABLE?
What about demanding that this election get nullified if it turns out Putin played a decisive role in electing Trump his new obligate, the President of the Corporation of Amerika?
What about spotlighting that self-interested Faith Based rejection of Objective Facts and Constructive Learning is an obscenely self-destructive way to operate our government?
What about demanding that “Evaluation of the Objective Facts trumps Personal Faith-Based decision-making” ? What about ethics and honesty?
How about asking the question: Does American deserves a full time president, who's fully focused on leading his/her country - or a hobbyist?
How about asking the question:
"Do we want a Russian Obligate President?"
“Are we the United State of America or the Corporation of Amerika?”
What about demanding, Merrick Garland get his Supreme Court Vote January 3rd?
What about demanding, Merrick Garland get his Supreme Court Vote January 3rd? What about demanding, Merrick Garland get his Supreme Court Vote January 3rd? Over and over again! In some way that is the single most important and doable thing. If we can’t pull off that, … I shutter at the thought.
I bring this us because yesterday I listened in on a December19.US protest organizing group-call with much hope and finished feeling crushed and hopeless again. I’m sorry for being the old grump, but it was like listening in on kids planning a picnic. It was fine so far a “organizing’ stuff, but when it came to outlining the what and why of the protests, I was expecting a concise list, but there was nothing, beyond some mumbling.
Felt to me like the attitude was that, well ha, we all know it all sucks and yeah, well you know, and bad people, want them to know, and ah, that’s why we need as many there as possible... KNOW WHAT?
What is this protest supposed to accomplish?
Change anything?
Create community and solidarity?
Education someone (ourselves, opponents, on-lookers, leaders, who?)?
Demand Any Actions?
None of that was addressed at the phone call, later I double checked their (and other) websites and there too, no genuine messaging.
Just like Clinton’s prez campaign. Underestimating opponents. Thinking that going through the motions is enough. Inability to explain anything that matters to any one. Inability to confront the dirty tricks that this liberal white bread crowd so abhors.
