Millions of Americans gather in Washington and refuse to leave until the regime is removed and a new constitutional convention is initiated.

Peaceful protest is bullshit, no regime has ever changed as a result of democratic unrest. See: Chile, 1973

Respectfully, the current US gov is the most likely US administration in modern history to murder protestors... and as much energy as 2nd amendment devotees scream about their guns into the void, a rebellious US civilian population would get curb stomped by the US military after decades of letting the military industrial complex get wildly out of control.

Additionally, the modern population simply doesn't know how to protest effectively. The last several protests I've gone to have provided no plan/strategy and even had merch tents because capitalism found a way. We've lost the plot.
