To protest or not to protest: What should Trump supporters do?

 While Donald Trump is convinced he will be arrested on Tuesday, that is not actually etched in stone, despite the whining of the Orange Onion.

Perhaps in light of this, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy is urging calm. So is Georgia Misrepresentative Marjorie Taylor Greene, who is looking to divert the cattle herd to a scheduled rally in Waco, Texas, set for Friday.

Of course, both GOPers still support the oldest baby in America. However, they both feel, and, I think, so do other Republicans, that another violent protest isn't the answer. Greene, for her part, is urging supporters to save their money and gas for what would amount to a pilgrimage of pandering in Texas.

Being indicted, which likely is what will really happen, if at all, on Tuesday, is not the same as being arrested. Trump will get fingerprinted, have his picture taken for a mugshot, then sent on his way. In other words, he's making a mountain out of a molehill to salve his wounded ego, and issue a call to action to his supporters. 

However, if I were a Trump supporter, I'd listen to McCarthy and Greene, and sit it out on Tuesday. The Christians who blindly support the Orange Onion will pray, not realizing still that Trump has deceived them these last 8 years.

Either way, it's the beginning of the end for Donald Trump, and if it knocks him out of the 2024 presidential race, so much the better.
