Maximum travel time to the Capitol for each country by the lesser of car or train:

Albania 4.5 – 5.5 hours (by car)

Serbia 4 – 4.5 hours (by car)

Spain ~3.5 – 4.5 hours (via AVE high-speed rail)

France ~4.5 – 6.5 hours (via TGV high-speed rail)

United States 43 – 46 hours (by car, excludes Alaska and Hawaii)

Trying to organize in the capitol is a nightmare. I think we're better off pressuring governors and state officials more than trying to focus on the national level.

If we don't cause discomfort for the federal representatives, I'm afraid they will just call it a local problem much as they've done with the No Kings protests up to this point

I see it as two folds, get the local governments to deny and defy Trump then take it to the capitol. It'd be harder to ignore if states are supporting this. But the images show riots and I don't think it'd be easy to get the numbers in DC to really snarl things up without prior organization. Trump was only able to do it because the Democrats are pathetically weak.

You're not wrong, but I think you might overestimate the number of states where anything like this could actually happen. It would be spun as a "leftist rebellion" and they'd send in the militia fuckers with glee IMO

Yep, one of my favorite comparisons is that Germany is about the same size as Montana

Even people inside the US have a poor concept of just how big it is.

Like, only India, Russia, and to a lesser degree China compare to the US in terms of livable land area. After that is Brazil at less than half.

I honestly don't think it's a coincidence that the four countries with the largest liveable area have a serious authoritarian leadership problem right now.
