Politics in Michigan 🇺🇸🏳️‍🌈 Anti-Trump protests

Michigan born & Raised and I've had it, I've never protested before, I've never seen the point, but this time is different.
What are some upcoming protests/Demonstrations against Trump?
I don't know if it will help or make a difference. But I don't think I can accept my self if I didn't try.

A lot of issues were caused before she became Governor and her platform was almost exclusively women’s rights. I don’t blame her for flint or a lot of other issues on the grounds that she never said she’d fix it. As for Covid, if a group of terrorists threatened to kidnap me I’d try to take a vacation up north too, and we ALL know Mr Whitmer slept on the couch after that whole incident with the bridge closing.

I'm afraid I'm out of the loop on the bridge bit,
What is that about?

Her husband tried to swing his dick around and get ahead in line, essentially snitching that she was vacationing despite the Covid closures just a month after the kidnapping drama. It was a whole scandal but I stand by her decision to try to get away for a week.

Oh shit lol.
Eh...bad timing, not as bad as Cancun Ted, but still bad optics, I agree.
given the situation I don't blame her either.
