Петиция на сайте Белого Дома.
This petition urges the congress to impeach a hate speaker, fear mongering figure who has openly and vocally attacked the minorities of the American population, firing on the basic foundation of our founding fathers which made this land great. This is a man who has openly advocated using Nuclear Weaponry on the enemies of the state, promised to persecute a political opponent based on false evidence, promised a ban on people based on their religious beliefs and limit the civil rights of persons of certain ethnicity and repeal the Marriage Equality that made this country a shining star.
With his remarks and acts upon people of the United States of America, Donald J. Trump is the one person who does not have the necessary skills and conduct to be the Commander-in-Chief of this Great Nation.

On December 19, the Electors of the Electoral College will cast their ballots. If they all vote the way their states voted, Donald Trump will win. However, they can vote for Hillary Clinton if they choose. Even in states where that is not allowed, their vote would still be counted, they would simply pay a small fine - which we can be sure Clinton supporters will be glad to pay!
We are calling on the Electors to ignore their states' votes and cast their ballots for Secretary Clinton. Why?
Mr. Trump is unfit to serve. His scapegoating of so many Americans, and his impulsivity, bullying, lying, admitted history of sexual assault, and utter lack of experience make him a danger to the Republic.
Secretary Clinton WON THE POPULAR VOTE and should be President.
Hillary won the popular vote. The only reason Trump "won" is because of the Electoral College.
But the Electoral College can actually give the White House to either candidate. So why not use this most undemocratic of our institutions to ensure a democratic result?
SHE WON THE POPULAR VOTE.
There is no reason Trump should be President.
"It's the 'People's Will'"
No. She won the popular vote.
"Our system of government under our Constitution says he wins"
No. Our Constitution says the Electors choose.
"Too many states prohibit 'Faithless Electors'"
24 states bind electors. If electors vote against their party, they usually pay a fine. And people get mad. But they can vote however they want and there is no legal means to stop them in most states.
Пока верстался номер™, в мыльный ящик прилетела ссылочка на подобную же инициативу с ещё одного инструмента "прямой демократии", Avaaz:
Уважаемый господин Трамп,
У величия иной облик.
Мир не приемлет сеемые Вами страх, ненависть и нетерпимость. Мы выступаем против пыток, которые Вы поддерживаете, против Ваших призывов к убийству гражданского населения и Вашего общего одобрения насилия. Мы выступаем против Ваших клеветнических нападок на женщин, мусульман, мексиканцев и миллионов других людей, которые выглядят иначе, чем Вы, говорят не так, как Вы или же молятся не тому богу, которому молитесь Вы.
Перед лицом сеемого Вами страха мы выбираем сострадание. Слыша в Ваших речах отчаяние, мы выбираем надежду. Видя Ваше невежество, мы выбираем понимание.
Мы, граждане со всего мира, объединяемся против Вашего курса на раздор и раскол.
Большое и искреннее спасибо избирателям Соединённых Штатов за длящийся уже третий день праздник лулзов.
