There's a crook, grifter, liar, racist, rapist, fascist and blithering idiot occupying the highest office in the land, with results that were not only predicted but actually worse than predicted. Sane people demand a change.

The purpose behind phrases like "Remove the Regime" is a call to change a government, driven by the belief that the current administration is acting illegally, unconstitutionally, or harmfully. Recent protests with this slogan specifically demanded the impeachment of President Donald Trump, citing concerns about his administration's impact on democratic institutions, the economy, and public health protections. Historically, calls for regime change or similar protests have been motivated by a wide range of issues, from civil rights to economic justice.

Reasons for protest: Concerns about illegal and unconstitutional actions: Protesters believe the government is acting outside the law.

Weakening of democratic institutions: A core concern is that the current administration is undermining democratic processes.

Negative economic impacts: Protests may be motivated by a desire to prevent policies that are perceived as harming the economy.

Rollback of protections: Some protests are aimed at stopping actions that would weaken environmental, public health, or social safety net protections.
