In this case, protesting a number of invalid cabinet appointments.

Again, Bush and Obama were already doing that.... that's not the issue with Trump, Clinton would have continued the erosion of freedoms too - until the country snapped.
The issue with Trump is that what ever his agenda - he doesn't have the patience or the temperament to carry them out rationally.
Good example - in his haste to 'attack' the Chinese economy he killed the one thing that would have given the US power over the Chinese economy. The TPP.
He can't even do the wrong thing (immigration EO) correctly.

And here we are 12 days or so in, and Trump has already publicly 'declared' war on Chicago, Mexico and in effect China. He has insulted close allies, in private and in public and apparently treated almost ALL of the other world leaders (except Putin) with contempt during their conversations.
It has been and is still obvious who the rational person fears most.
