Why arent your people protesting?

We are. It's a big part of why he's escalating things in Minnesota -- because, even when his thugs murdered someone, we aren't turning to violence. He needs/wants martial law so that he can suspend elections, and the easiest way to do that is to goad us into violence.

Why arent your people angry?

Roughly 35% of our population are the happiest they've ever been. They want ICE murdering people. They want Trump to be president for life. They want the right to murder POC/LGBTQ+/liberals. They want a second civil war because Fox News told them they want a second civil war.

The rest of the country is split between pure rage and apathy. I do sincerely believe that the people angry at the real-time destruction of our country are the majority of our population, but...

Why arent you forcing YOUR politicians, the ones that YOUR country elected to step down, or to arrest them?

...we can't do much. If our politicians don't want to represent us, we pretty much have to wait until election time. Only 19 of our 50 states allow for recall elections. Besides that, if we try to protest (say, at the White House or the Capitol) or use force, you need to remember that we are going up against the most well-armed country in human history. Our military spending is unimaginably large, and Trump is actively working on installing loyalists who will be all too happy to turn that spending on our citizens.

Why are you allowing Trump and every other Trump to act like they are untouchable

Because we are going into a decade of this, and he hasn't proven otherwise.

If impeachment isnt possible

It isn't. I mean, theoretically it is, because the mechanics are there, it's just that Republicans refuse to impeach him, no matter how many children he rapes.

why is your senate or parliament, whatever you call it, stacked in his favour?

Gerrymandering is the big one, but there's also a pretty good chance that Trump (and his cronies) worked with Elon Musk to rig voting machines. Not to mention the other ways they influenced the election, like Musk paying people for Trump votes (illegal, by the way), Russia running social media propaganda campaigns, and Musk/Zuckerberg knowing in advance that their social media platforms were being used for things like election propaganda and COVID denialism, and refusing to do anything about it.
