One reason for the comparative quiet in the streets: many who protest act from the concept that the U.S. republic, the state, is a platform, even if tilted, on which different interests and sectors contend and which must come to some kind of settlement. A corollary is that even if you have no allegiance to the Democratic party, it can be moved.
Musk and Trump make it clear that this notion of the state is in the garbage can (if it was ever on the table). An elaboration of this explanation is at https://newworker.us/domestic/government-of-the-capitalists-by-elon-musk-for-some-capitalists/. Haven't seen anything similar.
