Millions march for ‘No Kings’ in biggest protest against Trump to date

Washington: Millions of Americans have marched against Donald Trump in what is believed to be the largest co-ordinated demonstration against the president and his government since he took office in January.

More than 2600 rallies were planned across the country on Saturday, US time, with protesters decrying what they believe to be an authoritarian, anti-democratic administration that has sidelined the Constitution, due process, equality and fairness.

In the capital, Washington, DC, multiple marches converged on Pennsylvania Avenue, the grand boulevard that links the US Capitol with the White House and many of the nation’s most important institutions.

Thousands carried signs denouncing Trump, or dressed up to illustrate their point. One man dressed as God walked down the National Mall saying “no Trumps in heaven”, while another was dressed as a baby version of Trump, painted in orange, wearing a nappy and carrying a king’s sceptre.
