Is there a president? A board of directors? Do they have a bank account for Soros to send his contributions to? AFAIK, Antifa is a political movement with no formal structure or leaders, just a loose collection of unrelated or unaffiliated groups or individuals, which ascribe to basically the same principles of opposition to fascism and racism. Pretty tough to designate an organization that's not an organization as a terrorist organization, major or otherwise.
