The good news is General Strikes work. The bad news is the older woman at the demonstration carrying the sign saying "I can't believe I'm still carrying this goddam sign".
Mass demonstrations at the White House are an effective first step. After invading Cambodia, mass anti-war protests visible outside the White House scared Nixon--Kissinger described this. Black Lives Matter protests at the White House in May/June 2020 sent Trump into hiding in his bunker. He ordered the army to intervene, but his Secretary of Defense delayed carrying the order out until Trump moved on. A peaceful protest against the Russian Tsar in 1905 led to a massacre by troops, Bloody Sunday, beginning the Russian Revolution of 1905. The series of mass strikes, sustained political working class strikes, was described by Rosa Luxemburg as a strategy for proletarian revolution.
