‘Hey hey! Ho ho! Donald Trump has got to go!’ protesters across the country chanted

Nearly 7 million demonstrators in small towns and cities across the country showed up for No Kings protests to rally against Donald Trump’s presidency, according to organizers.

The president declared he was “not a king” on Fox News Friday, but that didn’t stop millions of rally-goers in more than 2,500 locations across the United States from protesting the second Trump administration.

Saturday’s event marked the third mass mobilization since Trump reclaimed the White House — and one of the largest single-day nationwide demonstrations in U.S. history, surpassing the more than 5 million demonstrators who turned up to the first iteration of “No Kings” protests in June, organizers said.

    My son has major anxiety, so in order to not provoke it I have not gone despite wanting to. I am absolutely against Trump’s authoritarianism, but my son’s health and safety is more important to me right now.
