But it literally it was on the news for a day, that’s it.

Protests go on for multi days and have a physical effect and achieve discomfort.

Meanwhile, I don’t see the speech achieving a lot of that.

Sure, but how many protests legally prevent half of Congress from doing anything?

Edit: rewrite for better negation agreement.

Why does it have to achieve an immediate result to be a worthy action?
