    The problem is that it is individuals who file taxes, and for each one of them to withhold them is a serious crimes with serious consequences. though technically civil disobedience, it is not the “block the road get detained then let go” civil disobedience.

        That is not how the law works, it binds the poor and protects the rich. Trump literally cannot commit crimes while president because the supreme court declared him king. He is allowed to kill you with his bare hands (he is allowed to, not that he can) and rape your children and that would be 100% legal, because he is president. So withholding state funding is small potatoes for him. Did you forget the long list of crimes he is constantly committing?
