It probably won’t directly change anything but it will and can change public perception and what lawmakers see. It at least shows them “look at all these people who won’t stand by and take it.”
Comment on YSK: There's a protest today at noon at your state capitol.

It will show that people aren’t alone, Trump wants to pretend they have an overwhelming mandate to do whatever he wants, having upset people together shows that actually there are a lot of people that feel similarly. Organizing and coming together is the first step. The next is the strategic plan.

You have to start somewhere.
The people of this country have been, for the most part, just sitting back and letting the politicians run everything, and that definitely isn’t working. If people are going to do something about it, the first step is getting off the couch and going and meeting some other people who want to do something about it.
