Massive Anti-Trump Protest Rocks Washington; ‘Impeach, Convict, Remove’ Shakes the Streets

Washington: The 'Remove the Regime' rally created a political uproar in the US capital, Washington, DC, on Saturday. Hundreds of protesters took to the streets and chanted 'Impeach, Convict, Remove' against President Donald Trump. Reports suggest that Texas Congressman Al Green and former police officer Michael Fannon were the key speakers at the rally organized by the Remove Coalition. Live performances by the band Dropkick Murphys and artist Earth to Eve electrified the atmosphere. After the rally, a march was taken out along the National Mall. Is this a new chapter in the growing discontent against the Trump administration?

What demands were echoed in the rally—Al Green's 'Impeach' call, Fanon's 'fed up'?

The main demand of the protesters was to remove Trump from office by impeaching him. MP Al Green said that the situation is not getting better; it is getting worse. We have to impeach, convict, and remove so that no future dictator even thinks of taking over the government. Michael Fanon added that the majority of America's population would no longer tolerate being ignored. We are fed up with this administration. The crowd was in the hundreds, but the exact number was not given. The rally expressed concern over authoritarian tendencies. Will these demands reach the Senate?

The Trump administration's silence—why no reaction? Will political tension increase?

There was no official statement from the Trump administration, but this rally is a sign of increasing opposition to Trump's second term. The rally raised slogans to protect democracy and expressed dissatisfaction with Trump's policies. On the three stages of the impeachment process (Impeach, Convict, Remove), Green said that he will file articles of impeachment before Christmas. Will it get bipartisan support?
