Trump Hates Protests: So You Know What to Do

Donald Trump hates protests. He always has. He hates people in the streets. He hates raised voices. He hates signs, chants, marches, and truth spoken without permission. He hates it not because it’s disruptive—but because it’s free.


Protest exposes what he cannot control. It shatters the illusion that he owns the country, that dissent has been defeated, that fear has silenced everyone but him. Protest reminds him that he is not a king. And nothing unsettles a would-be dictator more than the sight of people rising together to say, “No.”


So you know what to do.


Trump doesn’t fear violence. He feeds on it. He invites chaos because he thinks he can dominate it. But what he cannot stand—what he cannot suppress with federal troops or online propaganda—is a citizenry that refuses to go quiet. He hates the act of public defiance. He hates that he cannot cancel your footsteps, cannot drown out your chants, cannot arrest a million bodies standing together.


He hates protests because they are the visible symptom of a country that still remembers what freedom looks like.


A Russian Asset’s War on American Will

Trump is not a patriot. He’s a Russian asset with a golden toilet and a grievance complex. He admires Vladimir Putin for his brutality. He praises Xi Jinping for his “strength.” He wants the unchallenged control of Lukashenko, the media suppression of Orbán, the crackdown powers of any autocrat who ever silenced a journalist or flattened a crowd.


In this second term—barely 200 days in—Trump is moving faster than ever. He’s sent National Guard troops into Los Angeles, not to protect but to intimidate. He’s trying to criminalize dissent again. He’s reshaping federal agencies into political weapons. And he’s betting that fear will finish the job.


But fear doesn’t win unless people stop showing up. And the streets, when filled, are a firewall.


So you know what to do.


The Power He Can’t Touch

Trump understands something most pundits don’t: protest is power. That’s why he lies about crowd sizes. That’s why he builds barricades and floods cities with soldiers. That’s why he tried to have Lafayette Square cleared with tear gas so he could hold a Bible upside down in front of a church he never entered.


He knows the threat isn’t violence—it’s visibility.


Because protest says: We are not afraid of you. Because protest says: You are not invincible.

Because protest says: You can be resisted—and you will be replaced. He hates it because it works. He hates it because it embarrasses him. He hates it because it shows that the people he pretends to rule are, in fact, awake and alive and organized.


So you know what to do.


The Stakes Are Real—And the Streets Matter

This isn’t performative anymore. This is survival. The bullets are real. The surveillance is real. The targeting of journalists and protest leaders is real. This is not a drill, and it is not theoretical. You are living in the United States under an aspiring dictator who is actively modeling his rule on the world’s worst regimes.


And yet: we are still here. And we are still loud.


Protest is not a sidebar to democracy. It is the immune system of democracy. And every time Trump tries to suppress it, he reminds you just how powerful it actually is.


Final Word: You Already Know

If Trump hates protests, it’s not because they’re wrong. It’s because they’re right.


So show up. Fill the streets. Refuse silence. Refuse shame. Refuse despair. Because Trump hates protests—and that alone should tell you exactly what the moment demands.


You know what to do.
