The sustained nationwide protests highlight deep public concern over President Trump's recent actions and policy directions. His moves to dramatically expand tariffs, limit immigration, and cut government programs are highly divisive and threaten economic stability as well as democratic norms. While the president retains political support from his base, approval ratings are slipping and large segments of the population feel their interests are being overlooked in favor of corporate allies and wealthy donors like Elon Musk. Any effort by the administration to declare martial law or further consolidate executive power would likely provoke an even stronger public backlash. I urge you to carefully consider checks on overreach by the executive branch, including potential impeachment proceedings if warranted by the facts. Protecting the integrity of democratic institutions must be the top priority to maintain public faith and national unity during these turbulent times.
