Important: The share of counties hosting at least one anti-Trump protest has risen markedly during his second term, surpassing spikes observed during his first term. And the current protest movement has reached deeper into Trump country than during the first Trump administration.

If anyone's wondering how this is possible, the answer is these strike teams are moving terrifyingly fast. Grab first, ask questions later. We were about 8-15 minutes behind them today for several hours. They're jumping out of vans, chasing people across lawns, taking them from bus stops, etc
