One the groups needs to have an outfit that is a giant pile of mashed potatoes. Someone could stand outside of every rally wearing it. Another person could wear one outside of the WH. How about a balloon depicting mashed potatoes flying everywhere Trump does. There are all kinds of mashed potato themed ways to flaunt it in his face.

(37,163 posts)The family got a tour of the White House and stopped at the Lincoln Bedroom, where Mary Trump observed a half-eaten apple on the bedside table. Donald Trump proclaimed, This place has never looked better since George Washington lived here. (Mary Trump notes the White House didn't open until after Washingtons death.)
Dinner was no less uncomfortable. At one point, Donald Trump gestured to his son Eric Trumps wife, Lara Trump, and said, Lara, there, I barely even knew who the (expletive) she was, honestly, but then she gave a great speech during the campaign in Georgia supporting me. By that point, Eric and Lara had been together for nearly eight years.
The most awkward moment came when Maryanne Trump Barry regaled the table with the story of the time Freddy Trump dumped a bowl of mashed potatoes on his bratty little brothers head. Its the sort of harmless, humorous anecdote most families relish retelling over the years until it becomes lore. But decades later, Donald Trump visibly bristled at the memory, crossing his arms and scowling. It upset him, as if he were that seven-year-old boy, Mary Trump writes. He clearly still felt the sting of that long-ago humiliation.

(10,953 posts)His eldest brother dumped a bowl of mashed potatoes on his head one night at dinner when 7 year old brat Donald wouldn't stop torturing his younger brother (the one who just died). And he was still freaked out about it and the humiliation when someone brought it up during a family birthday for his 2 sisters at the White House in 2017! He's kinda thin skinned...
Mary Trump told the story in her book. His family still thinks is was pretty funny. To this day, Trump hates the story. One of his biggest fears in life is being humiliated.
