The easiest way to participate in this strike is to stay home from work or school. You can do a sick-out or you can tell your employer why you're striking. There's a good chance they'll agree with you - most Americans do! You can also boycott the economy by not shopping and not paying your mortgage or your bills. The majority of voters in this country, and the majority of people on the planet, do not believe that Donald Trump is fit to be President. The economy cannot run without the majority. Thus, if millions of people participate, the strike has a 100% chance of success; Ganhdi and MLK proved it.
Some people will not be able to stay home from work or school, of course; we understand that. You can also boycott Exxon Mobil and all Trump businesses, for starters.
We the strikers have two demands:
1) Donald Trump is never allowed to become President.
2) We re-run the presidential portion of the November 2016 General Election
While we realize this is not covered in the Constitution, it is covered in the Declaration of Independence: “Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.”
We're the only government on Earth where the right to change our government is written into our founding documents. It's time to use that power that is granted to the people, because:
A foreign power has actively worked to subvert the democratic process;
Another candidate won the popular vote by millions;
and the Electoral College failed to do its job to stop this fascist demagogue because of the partisan makeup of its members.
Remember, only about 25% of the registered voters in the US actually cast votes for Trump. That minority cannot be allowed to take the US and the world down a terrible path.
We are looking for institutional co-sponsors for this event.
If you're participating, spread the word to others and tell your elected representatives that you're striking and why.
