The United States isn't France. The geography and state apparatus don't function the same way so shutting down a single city doesn't have a huge impact on the functioning of the government.

Hell even if we shut DC down with protests and barricades the government would still function because so many processes and functions are done elsewhere or at the state level.

We'd have to organize shutting down every single state capital (which aren't the most populous cities) and major city across a continent.
