Trump Resistance Plans 'Mass Mobilization' After Election To Shut Down The Country If Biden Doesn’t Win

Riot and protest instigators plan to “make sure Trump leaves the White House” by any 
means necessary after the Nov. 3 election, according to website posts from the group 
Shut Down DC and their allies. “W]e’re making plans to be in the streets before the 
polls even close, ready to adapt and respond to whatever comes our way,” the group says 
on its website currently.

“Trump has shown that he will stop at nothing to maintain his grip on power. Trump will 
not leave office without mass mobilization and direct action,” an Oct. 13 version of the 
same web page reads, according to Internet Archive records.

The group linked to protests at the homes of Trump administration officials tells its 
DC-area supporters to “Come to Black Lives Matter Plaza” on election night “to create 
serious disruption if Trump really tries to steal the election!” Black Lives Matter 
Plaza is the site of repeated anti-Trump summer rioting and defacement of the historic 
Saint John’s Church one block away from the White House.

On the page, Shut Down DC sketches out its plans for election night and immediately 
following. On Nov. 4-7, the group says it plans to “do whatever it takes”:

	In the days following the election we’ll continue to come out 
	into the streets every day to respond to rapidly changing 
	events. We may be waiting for votes to be counted or we may be 
	responding to major attacks on democracy. Over the next few 
	weeks we’ll use our Spokes Council process to plan actions 
	that are flexible and can scale to respond to a lot of 
	different scenarios.

Then, on Nov. 8-11, the group’s plan is to meet members of Congress returning to 
Washington DC for the lame-duck session. “If Trump is trying to launch a coup, that’s no 
time for business as usual. We’ll meet them at the train station or the airports or if 
they drive into town we can meet them at their homes,” the website says.

A slide deck posted on the group’s website from an “organizing call” claims this group 
is working in concert with leftist groups around the nation to prepare for President 
Trump to “steal the election” and attempt a “coup.” The slides pinpoint now as the time 
these groups are “gathering gear” to respond.

The post-election plan of action links to the group’s advice about taking “appropriate 
precautions” for security. This includes forming “affinity groups” “that will go into 
more detail and possibly engage in higher risk actions.”

“Keep in mind that not everyone needs to know every detail of your plans,” says the 
post-election plan about “taking appropriate precautions.” “We don’t! Feel free to only 
share what people outside your [affinity group] need to know, and keep the specific 
action details close to the vest.”

What kinds of actions these might be are stated in a “Strategic framework for action 
following the 2020 election” that sketches out their plans for rioting and attacking 
American institutions and life until Biden is installed as president. It claims if Trump 
declares victory that will mark “the start of the coup.”

“At some point in the days following the election Trump will almost certainly either 
attempt to declare outright victory or attempt to invalidate the results of the 
election. That is the start of the coup,” it claims. “…Trump can only seize power if the 
world believes that he has the power. That’s why we’re starting this phase of the 
election in the streets… We need to show that we’re ungovernable under a continued Trump 
administration…That can mean blocking traffic at major intersections and bridges, 
shutting down government office buildings (why should ICE or the FBI be able to keep 
doing Trump’s bidding when he’s leading with a coup?!?), or blockading the White House.”

The document bases its action plan upon the scenarios projected by the establishment 
leftist “Transition Integrity Project” for election night and sketches these activists’ 
response to each, explicitly rejecting the possibility that Trump could legitimately 
win. It continues:

We’ll keep it going until Trump concedes. We could be in the streets throughout the fall 
and into the winter– maybe as lots of rolling waves of action or possibly as a few major 
tsunamis! In other parts of the country, as vote counts conclude, our focus will turn 
from protecting the vote counts to themselves being ungovernable.

As it becomes clear that Trump’s coup is failing, institutions and the elites will start 
to abandon him – or we will approach them as part of the problem. Either Amazon will 
shut down AWS for the Trump loyalists in the government or we’ll shut down their 
fulfillment centers. Either governors will tell their national guards to stand down or 
we’ll shut down their state capitals as well. Over time, Trump will grow increasingly 
isolated and his empire will crumble down around him.

Then — and this is the important part — Biden will move into the White House and be 
sworn in as the 46th President of the United States.

On its Facebook page, the group recently posted a picture of a mob arriving at Sen. 
Lindsey Graham’s house at 6 a.m. to harass him for following the Constitution. In the 
picture, one protest sign reads, “We can’t sleep so neither should Lindsey.”


“Preventing Donald Trump from stealing the election and remaining in office is likely to 
take mass, sustained disruptive movements all over the country,” the group’s website 
posted on Oct. 7.

“Puting [sic] pressure on the media and social media agencies to refuse to declare a 
victor, resisting demands to call the vote in forvor [sic] of Trump, physically 
protecting the vote count from counter-protestors, federal agents, or white supremacist 
militias are all potential actions in this moment,” says the group’s “Disruption Guide 
for 2020.” The guide, a Google document, had 61 viewers at the moment it was reviewed 
for The Federalist.
