Gavin Newsom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If history is any indicator, Trump is almost certain to follow through on that threat, as presidents have executive authority to decide whether, when and where to direct emergency aid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Federal disaster assistance is provided through the \u003ca href=\"https://www.fema.gov/pdf/emergency/nrf/nrf-stafford.pdf\">Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act\u003c/a>, a federal law enacted in 1988 that designed the system through which states request and are granted financial assistance after a natural disaster.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After a wildfire, for example, local emergency responders are first to assess damage and relay information to state officials, who are responsible for declaring a state of emergency, should the incident arise to such a level, and shoring up state financial assistance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, the governor reaches out to the Federal Emergency Management Agency and requests a disaster declaration.

Kristi Noem for that position), who sends it on up to the president to approve or deny.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The problem is that this whole process, once you get above FEMA to the Department of Homeland Security and between the president, those conversations are executive privilege, so we can’t analyze what’s going on there,” said Matt Sedlar, a climate analyst at the Center for Economic and Policy Research who researches disaster relief aid. “It could just be a political decision.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During his first term in office, Trump sought to deny wildfire recovery aid to California on multiple occasions. In 2018, as the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/camp-fire\">Camp Fire\u003c/a> became California’s deadliest on record, Trump resisted providing aid because of the state’s Democratic leanings, \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/news/2024/10/03/helene-trump-politics-natural-disaster-00182419\">according to \u003cem>Politico\u003c/em>\u003c/a>. He reportedly changed his mind after his aides pulled data showing how many people voted for him in the affected areas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And in 2020, in the aftermath of six major wildfires that burned across the state, the Trump administration initially \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/15/politics/trump-california-fire-disaster-assistance/index.html\">denied the state aid\u003c/a>, saying the disaster declaration was “not supported by the relevant data.” It eventually \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/16/us/trump-california-wildfire-relief.html\">reversed that decisio\u003c/a>n.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Why would he punish any American really reeling from a natural disaster?” Democratic Rep. Jared Huffman, who represents parts of the North Bay and California’s North Coast region, said in an interview this week with KQED. “It’s just so despicable. But that’s likely to be what we’re up against, and we’ve got a few strategies that we’re developing to deal with it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huffman, whose district has been faced with historic wildfires in recent years, said he’s been in talks this week with Newsom and colleagues in California’s congressional delegation about disaster aid contingency plans for Trump’s second term.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Basically, how California can backfill and protect things that we care about and how we are going to navigate some of these likely confrontations going forward,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom is looking to establish a fund he can draw from in the event of a natural disaster, he said in an \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/news/2024/10/22/trump-california-emergency-aid-newsom-00184799\">interview with \u003cem>Politico\u003c/em>\u003c/a>.

Research shows that political factors \u003ca href=\"https://digitalscholarship.tsu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1027&context=jpmsp\">do shade presidents’ decisions\u003c/a> to deny disaster relief, particularly during election years, but Sedlar said, “I can’t think of any other instances in which a president has said the quiet part out loud so many times.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Biden denied individual assistance — a type of financial aid for affected individuals — to victims of the 2021 Caldor Fire after FEMA determined that enough of them were covered by insurance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rep. Tom McClintock, a Republican who represents the area affected by the Caldor Fire, appealed Biden’s decision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The denial of Individual Assistance, if allowed to stand, will have devastating consequences on survivors whose homes and livelihoods have been destroyed,” he \u003ca href=\"https://mcclintock.house.gov/newsroom/press-releases/rep-mcclintock-calls-for-president-biden-to-fulfill-his-promise-to-caldor\">wrote in a letter\u003c/a> at the time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom, tribal authorities and members of Congress can appeal a decision to deny aid, but “unless there’s some kind of political factor that might change the president’s mind, he doesn’t really have to change anything,” Sedlar said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are other possible avenues for federal relief, Sedlar said, including suing the federal government — specifically the U.S. Forest Service — for negligence in its \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/science/1994972/forest-service-halts-prescribed-burns-california-worth-risk\">recent decision to halt prescribed burns\u003c/a>, which can protect homes from future wildfires. Still, it’s unlikely a lawsuit payout would equal FEMA aid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although Democratic nominee Kamala Harris won the state, \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/election/article/trump-vote-california-county-19897935.php\">Trump increased his margins in California\u003c/a> this election, which could potentially help the state secure federal relief when wildfires undoubtedly strike over the next four years. Though, by that logic, the Bay Area could face hurdles in seeking aid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Obviously, wildfires do not follow political boundaries, and some of these coastal areas that have fires went towards Harris,” Sedlar said.\u003c/p>\n\n",

The guest panelists — including Honey Mahogany, director of San Francisco’s Office of Transgender Initiatives — acknowledged that \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/forum/2010101907810/the-future-of-trans-rights-in-a-trump-presidency\">it’s difficult to offer concrete recommendations right now to trans folks\u003c/a> and their families, given the uncertainty of what’s to come. But amid these attacks, Overholt said, the election “also brought a sense of ‘OK, it’s time to roll up our sleeves even further and get to work, to make sure that folks in this area have the access to the things that they need.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And you can still do a few things, even at this early stage.

Turning to others can also help a person feel the weight — and power — of their community in the wake of the election, he said, and help you “understand that we’re not alone and that there are people fighting and fighting for all of our rights.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Overholt also stresses the intersectionality of community and how organizations like Positive Images will also be seeking to collaborate and build strength through partnerships during this time — in a way that acknowledges that “the queer community is not a monolith,” they said. “We have trans folks with differing documentation statuses. We have Black trans folks. We have a lot of friends that need support, that our organization as a queer organization can only do so much [for].”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12014350\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12014350\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/031_SanFrancisco_BreonnaTaylorRally_03132021_qed.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/031_SanFrancisco_BreonnaTaylorRally_03132021_qed.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/031_SanFrancisco_BreonnaTaylorRally_03132021_qed-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/031_SanFrancisco_BreonnaTaylorRally_03132021_qed-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/031_SanFrancisco_BreonnaTaylorRally_03132021_qed-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/031_SanFrancisco_BreonnaTaylorRally_03132021_qed-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/031_SanFrancisco_BreonnaTaylorRally_03132021_qed-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A demonstrator holds a sign reading, “Black Trans Lives Matter” during a march in San Francisco in March, 2021. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>At this time, “our strength is really going to be in coalition-building and leaning on other organizations like NAACP, like Latino service providers, like our local legal aid to make sure that when things arise, we have the resources at our fingertips,” Overholt said. “So that our friends can take swift action to do what they need to do, to either repair some of that trauma or harm that’s been done or protect against it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In short, know you’re not alone right now, even if it feels like it.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Get your documentation in order\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>“One of the most important things that you can do right now is make sure that your legal documents are in order,” Overholt said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re trans and you’re interested in a \u003ca href=\"https://transcare.ucsf.edu/legal-info-and-namegender-changes\">legal name change or gender indicator change\u003c/a>, “you should file that paperwork tomorrow,” he said. \u003ca href=\"https://transgenderlawcenter.org/resources/id/\">Read more about making name or gender indicator changes from the Transgender Law Center. \u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The reason this is pressing, Overholt said, is “because that’s probably going to be one of the tools [that Californians will have] to protect ourselves and our access to different resources, in terms of gender-affirming care.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Advocates for Trans Equality (A4TE) has \u003ca href=\"https://transequality.org/documents\">a state-by-state guide to changing your state and federal documents\u003c/a>, including:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Your legal name\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Your driver’s license or state ID\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Your birth certificate\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Your U.S. Passport\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Your Social Security record\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Your immigration documents\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12013522]If the bureaucracy of name or gender indicator changes feels daunting to embark on right now, Honey Mahogany said that you seek out support and advice from local LGBTQ+ organizations — who may well have special teams on hand to help you with these processes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She specifically recommended the \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfcenter.org/\">SF LGBT Center\u003c/a>, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.transgenderdistrictsf.com/\">SF Transgender District\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://lyon-martin.org/\">Lyon-Martin Community Health Services\u003c/a> for the support they can provide for folks looking to change their name or gender indicator and “getting your ducks, legally, in order.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I just want people to feel safe,” Mahogany said. “And so, at this point, I’m just encouraging all trans people to do what they think will make them feel safest.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What about equal marriage?

Tom Temprano, managing director of external affairs at Equality California, said that it’s “not a coincidence” that \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12012822/california-prop-roundup-heres-what-passed-and-what-got-rejected\">California voters overwhelmingly voted to pass Proposition 3 last week\u003c/a>, safeguarding the right to same-sex marriage within the state Constitution — a measure put on the ballot by California Democratic lawmakers to protect against possible federal changes to marriage protections. “The Supreme Court and these extremist judges that Donald Trump appointed have made clear that after \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11917111/even-without-roe-v-wade-abortion-is-still-legal-in-california-heres-what-you-need-to-know\">overturning 40 years of precedent on abortion care\u003c/a>, same-sex marriage \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11913295/lgbtq-advocates-fear-implications-of-overturning-roe-v-wade\">is next\u003c/a>.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11913295]In her own life, Mahogany said that she and her partner are now discussing whether they should get married: “Who knows what’s going to happen if they overturn the right to marry federally?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It must be stressed, however: A huge amount just isn’t known right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Seek support — and action — from local resources\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Unlike many parts of the country, the Bay Area has a strong network of community centers, resources and advocacy groups serving the LGBTQ+ community.

"content": "\u003cp>Mass protests across the Bay Area met Donald Trump’s election in 2016. Thousands of people flooded the streets in \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/san-francisco\">San Francisco\u003c/a>, Oakland, Berkeley and San José. Some of the protests \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11166247/trumps-election-greeted-by-berkeley-oakland-protests\">turned violent\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, in 2024, the days after Trump’s decisive victory over \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/kamala-harris\">Vice President Kamala Harris\u003c/a> have been very different. A couple dozen people \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12013226/dozens-gather-in-sf-for-vigil-after-trump-win\">gathered for a vigil\u003c/a> at Harvey Milk Plaza on Wednesday night. There was a small demonstration at UC Berkeley, and about 100 people marched through the streets of San José.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mostly, the response has felt muted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think the main outcome for many people who might have been out protesting is the feeling of being dispirited, the feeling of being humbled, the feeling of being out of touch with a lot of America,” said Jon Krosnick, a political psychologist at Stanford University. “Those aren’t the kinds of emotions that are inspiring a protest.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many people KQED spoke with said election results left them feeling defeated. Some are unsure what real impact another march will have. And a significant number of the young people who were coming of age during Trump’s first term say they’re disillusioned with the Democratic Party. While there haven’t been mass protests in the streets, all of these contingents say they are looking toward Trump’s second term and preparing to fight it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Max Flynt, who is a member of the General Union of Palestine Students at San Francisco State, said there wasn’t a possible election outcome that made Trump’s victory worth protesting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You can’t ignore the biggest anti-war movement in over half a century internationally, but also across campuses all across the United States, and expect young people to be excited,” he told KQED. “You can’t move to the right on immigration, brag about building Donald Trump’s border wall, prosecuting transnational gangs, demonizing immigrants and expect Democrats and young people to vote for the Democratic Party.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pro-Palestinian protesters have been a force on Bay Area college campuses since Israel began its war in Gaza after a Hamas-led attack killed 1,200 people in October 2023. Activists have criticized the Biden administration’s financial support for Israel throughout the war, which has now killed more than \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12011429/these-gen-z-voters-are-choosing-kamala-harris-but-gaza-is-still-a-sticking-point\">42,000 Palestinians\u003c/a>, according to Gaza health officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ahead of the presidential election, SF State’s General Union of Palestine Students, along with local pro-Palestine campus organizations, encouraged members not to vote for either Trump or Harris, running a “No more votes for genocide” campaign on social media.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We will continue to declare our full support for Palestinian liberation and will not be fooled by a two-party system that continues to be complicit and in full support of the genocide in Gaza,” the organization posted on \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/DBybbr9pPpu/\">Instagram\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Young people between the ages of 18 and 29 did vote at a significantly lower rate — 42% compared to 52% — than in 2020, according to Tufts University’s \u003ca href=\"https://circle.tufts.edu/latest-research/overall-youth-turnout-down-2020-strong-battleground-states\">Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even among those who were fans of Harris, Krosnick said the election’s circumstances are different now than they were in 2016. Then, it felt implausible that someone who used inflammatory language like Trump would be elected. There was outrage that he lost the popular vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This time, he won the electoral college more handily and is leading in the popular vote by more than a two-point margin. There’s much less shock because he’s held office before. In general, the feeling is more resignation than anger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether those feelings linger or turn into determination and defiance will be an important indicator of how national politics will trend in the near future, Krosnick said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If the part of America that supports the Democratic Party becomes deactivated as a result of this, then the momentum of the Republican Party is going to be tremendous in the coming decades,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans also gained a majority in the Senate, flipping four seats. Control of the House of Representatives has not yet been decided, but Republicans have already picked up two seats from Democrats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Protest will be critical for balancing the scales,” Krosnick said, adding that demonstrations will rely on young people to be successful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In part, it’s easier for young people to take the time, he said. They also haven’t seen the political pendulum swing left and right as many times and, in the past, have usually been less disillusioned with the impact they can make.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think a lot more people just are taking their time to kind of process, accept what this means and then move forward,” said Zoe Tweedie, the president of the Stanford University chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She and Brian Yan, another one of SF State’s General Union of Palestine Students leaders, do believe that young people will activate around Trump’s policies once he is in office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yan and Flynt are focused on how the Trump administration handles the war in Gaza. They expect Trump, who has urged Israel to “finish the job” in Gaza, will be less critical of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think with Trump in office, this could galvanize people,” Yan said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They see the second Trump term as an opportunity for Democrats to rally around the pro-Palestine movement and move toward the progressive wing of the party.[aside label=\"Related Stories\" postID=\"news_12013226,news_12012421,forum_2010101907754\"]“We’re hoping that we see something similar to the attitude around [Black Lives Matter],” Flynt said. “When Donald Trump became president — [creating] the 1776 project, calling BLM terrorists, calling antifa terrorists — all of a sudden, we see \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13881731/a-front-row-seat-at-the-woke-theatre\">Nancy Pelosi wearing a Kente cloth\u003c/a>, on her knee, putting her fist up for the Black Lives Matter movement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tweedie expects people to focus less on protest and more on advocacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think what you’re going to see and what I’m already seeing a lot more of is rather than negative campaigns, positive campaigns,” she said. “The ACLU is investing time into, ‘How can we protect rights that we’re scared we’re going to lose?’ rather than ‘How can we protest against Trump?’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Students she’s spoken with want to focus on issue-driven organizing efforts. Tweedie believes state-level mutual aid campaigns and legal fights where abortion restrictions, anti-transgender laws and crackdowns on immigration are the most severe will likely lead Democrats’ resistance to whatever the incoming administration chooses to target.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yan agrees that just because there hasn’t been mass protest on the streets doesn’t mean people aren’t focused on how to face the next four years. One of the biggest questions being considered is: “How do we fight back?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Maybe people are thinking it can’t just be big marches through the streets. We have to get organized,” he told KQED. “How do we be more tactful about how to fight back and when? Because the repression is only going to get worse under Trump, and we have to start thinking through, ‘How do we get through that, and how do we keep each other safe?’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Thousands of people flooded the streets in \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/san-francisco\">San Francisco\u003c/a>, Oakland, Berkeley and San José. Some of the protests \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11166247/trumps-election-greeted-by-berkeley-oakland-protests\">turned violent\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, in 2024, the days after Trump’s decisive victory over \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/kamala-harris\">Vice President Kamala Harris\u003c/a> have been very different. A couple dozen people \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12013226/dozens-gather-in-sf-for-vigil-after-trump-win\">gathered for a vigil\u003c/a> at Harvey Milk Plaza on Wednesday night.

Some are unsure what real impact another march will have. And a significant number of the young people who were coming of age during Trump’s first term say they’re disillusioned with the Democratic Party. While there haven’t been mass protests in the streets, all of these contingents say they are looking toward Trump’s second term and preparing to fight it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Max Flynt, who is a member of the General Union of Palestine Students at San Francisco State, said there wasn’t a possible election outcome that made Trump’s victory worth protesting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You can’t ignore the biggest anti-war movement in over half a century internationally, but also across campuses all across the United States, and expect young people to be excited,” he told KQED. “You can’t move to the right on immigration, brag about building Donald Trump’s border wall, prosecuting transnational gangs, demonizing immigrants and expect Democrats and young people to vote for the Democratic Party.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pro-Palestinian protesters have been a force on Bay Area college campuses since Israel began its war in Gaza after a Hamas-led attack killed 1,200 people in October 2023. Activists have criticized the Biden administration’s financial support for Israel throughout the war, which has now killed more than \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12011429/these-gen-z-voters-are-choosing-kamala-harris-but-gaza-is-still-a-sticking-point\">42,000 Palestinians\u003c/a>, according to Gaza health officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ahead of the presidential election, SF State’s General Union of Palestine Students, along with local pro-Palestine campus organizations, encouraged members not to vote for either Trump or Harris, running a “No more votes for genocide” campaign on social media.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We will continue to declare our full support for Palestinian liberation and will not be fooled by a two-party system that continues to be complicit and in full support of the genocide in Gaza,” the organization posted on \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/DBybbr9pPpu/\">Instagram\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Young people between the ages of 18 and 29 did vote at a significantly lower rate — 42% compared to 52% — than in 2020, according to Tufts University’s \u003ca href=\"https://circle.tufts.edu/latest-research/overall-youth-turnout-down-2020-strong-battleground-states\">Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even among those who were fans of Harris, Krosnick said the election’s circumstances are different now than they were in 2016. Then, it felt implausible that someone who used inflammatory language like Trump would be elected. There was outrage that he lost the popular vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This time, he won the electoral college more handily and is leading in the popular vote by more than a two-point margin. There’s much less shock because he’s held office before. In general, the feeling is more resignation than anger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether those feelings linger or turn into determination and defiance will be an important indicator of how national politics will trend in the near future, Krosnick said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If the part of America that supports the Democratic Party becomes deactivated as a result of this, then the momentum of the Republican Party is going to be tremendous in the coming decades,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans also gained a majority in the Senate, flipping four seats. Control of the House of Representatives has not yet been decided, but Republicans have already picked up two seats from Democrats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Protest will be critical for balancing the scales,” Krosnick said, adding that demonstrations will rely on young people to be successful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In part, it’s easier for young people to take the time, he said. They also haven’t seen the political pendulum swing left and right as many times and, in the past, have usually been less disillusioned with the impact they can make.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think a lot more people just are taking their time to kind of process, accept what this means and then move forward,” said Zoe Tweedie, the president of the Stanford University chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She and Brian Yan, another one of SF State’s General Union of Palestine Students leaders, do believe that young people will activate around Trump’s policies once he is in office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yan and Flynt are focused on how the Trump administration handles the war in Gaza. They expect Trump, who has urged Israel to “finish the job” in Gaza, will be less critical of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think with Trump in office, this could galvanize people,” Yan said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They see the second Trump term as an opportunity for Democrats to rally around the pro-Palestine movement and move toward the progressive wing of the party.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Tweedie believes state-level mutual aid campaigns and legal fights where abortion restrictions, anti-transgender laws and crackdowns on immigration are the most severe will likely lead Democrats’ resistance to whatever the incoming administration chooses to target.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yan agrees that just because there hasn’t been mass protest on the streets doesn’t mean people aren’t focused on how to face the next four years. One of the biggest questions being considered is: “How do we fight back?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Maybe people are thinking it can’t just be big marches through the streets. We have to get organized,” he told KQED. “How do we be more tactful about how to fight back and when? Because the repression is only going to get worse under Trump, and we have to start thinking through, ‘How do we get through that, and how do we keep each other safe?’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
