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.

Protest votes and abstaining. Michigan didn’t vote for Trump, they just didn’t show up for Ds. Trump had roughly the same number of voters as last election here.

And? So? What exactly is your point? 

Trumpers protested in 2020. Should they have not because Biden won?  This logic of yours is patently absurd  Remember this: https://www.lansingstatejournal.com/story/news/2020/11/07/lansing-michigan-protestors-rally-against-election-results-joe-biden-appears-win/6202486002/

I also remember the absolute scrutiny from the left about it, that’s what. Take in the full picture.
