Blackout Friday.
Alright, let's do it then?
Blackout Friday
Every Friday until he's gone and damage is reversed
We don't transact at all each Friday.
We directly call the businesses we would have shopped at that day to tell them the dollar amount we'd be spending with them if democracy wasn't under attack.
And/or email their corporate with the same message.
Maybe they can dismiss a total boycott that as a hollow, reactionary promise that will pass, but saying "I will shop with you much less" feels much more real and they can see it being enough to reverse their endless growth line. They care about one thing.
