Clearly people are still not here for Donald Trump. With today being “President’s Day,” people all over are taking to celebrate “Not My President’s Day.” The rallies took place in New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago, protestors in cities like Washington D.C., Denver, and Atlanta.
Olga Lexell, one of the principal organizers says,
“A lot of people are angry because he lost the popular vote and is ruling like somebody who won by a landslide,”
People held signs in front of the Trump International Hotel while they chanted In the name of humanity, fascist America—No! No! No! No! No!,” For the description in the NY Protest Facebook page, it read,
“Donald Trump is literally our President, but figuratively, he has attacked every value New Yorkers embody and does not represent our interests. We will be staging a rally at Columbus Circle to protest the un-American policies of the current White House.”
