Protests against Donald Trump in the entire US
The military parade in the US capital is aimed at paying attention to the US Army’s 250th birthday. The fact that it goes off on Trump’s own 79th birthday, Trump himself says is a coincidence, something that the critics question.
-Donald Trump will have a show on the streets of Washington DC, which he thinks looks powerful and strong, and we know it is not so real power, says Hannah Stauss, one of the organizers and participants in the « 50501 » movement-an abbreviation for 50 protests, 50 states, 1 movement, on site in New York.
Among the protesters in Philadelphia are veteran Jon Cutler.
– This is what makes this country fantastic, even the highest person in the United States, who is the US president, must still follow the legal system and the laws that exist in the US Constitution, he tells CNN.
According to ABC News, millions of Americans are expected to participate in the protests to mark against Trump’s initiative, but also to distance himself from his policy for, among other things, immigration, expulsions, civil rights and cuts in the federal government.
In Minnesota, the protests were canceled after two politicians were shot in their homes during the night until Saturday.
Donald Trump has In a comment on Saturday’s protests, he does not feel like a king. He has also threatened to use « severe violence » against « all » protesters at the military parade, reports ABC News. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt later said that the president « of course » supports peaceful protesters.
In order not to give Trump a reason to take revenge on peaceful protests, the organizers have decided not to demonstrate in Washington DC during the day.
