Sorry Peter. Americans are so poorly informed willfully or otherwise, there will be no resistance. Anger and hostility will be easily directed in any number of ways as distractions. I talked to a woman today selling blenders at a local Costco. I asked her who she voted for. She was embarrassed to admit Trump. But after all, we needed a change and the Clinton's were so corrupt.
The majority of US citizens are ill informed and subject to the propaganda, yes! However, social/political change has always been made by a few, with the others following later or just watching from the sidelines. A few made this step backwards and a relative few can make a positive change forward. I'm not going to just sit and watch my nation turn into a fascist police state without a fight. I have been engaged in that fight all of my life and now we are really in deep trouble and need to fight and work even harder/faster - or go down trying.
