Yep, there are European anti-Trump protests.
His administration supporting and emboldening local fascists and racists isn't going well at all, and him inviting Conor McGregor at the White House, a renowned a**hole, and adjudicated rapist, was a literal slap in the face to a lot of Irish people (especially women). Of course there are protests.

They're all legitimate reasons. And I am sure being physically protesting in the streets could be dangerous in the current climate. There's no denying it.
There are different ways to protest that could be more effective, that's true too.
What I see on social media is a lot of people thinking that's someone else's job to fix the situation, or that the president can somehow be legally removed, or they can just wait and it'll be fine. Is it so, though?

I didn't mean to say people aren't doing anything or aren't doing enough. What I was saying is that I am surprised at how not literally everyone is protesting. Every single person.
I don't live there, I can only support from afar with blanket boycotts of all corporations who fund the administration. If I lived in the USA, I would be enraged beyond control for what they're doing.

it's incredible to me how there aren't millions of enraged people in the streets protesting.
