Where are the number tallies coming from? I only say this because I was there for the Women's March in 2017. There were 500k protestors that day and THIS actually looks like more!
There were protests large and small all around the nation. Of course the media - owned and controlled worldwide by the rich - did not show it. They don’t want us to know. Just like the don’t show the massive uprisings in Turkey, Israel, Serbia, etc. same reason!
This is one of many protests in NYC. To make sure it stayed orderly, ours stopped at the Flatiron Building so we didn’t run into the masses at Washington Square in Greenwich Village.
It not only stayed orderly, but 100,000 of us went to Eataly, Wagamama and elsewhere for cappuccino afterwards.
Now the US public is starting to flex its muscle! And each protest will make the next one easier. I foresee a busy spring and summer as Trump's pain hits hard. 👏✊💪
We feel relieved to see your democracy alive and kicking America. Keep up the good fight!
This is meaningful, as you do not demonstrate that often in the US. Don't let them dictate you what your country is!

This is the latest and most impression exercise in concerted action by the public. It is getting more and more capable, and politicians who can't see it are headed for a painful lesson. The American people are not going to put up with the current level of treachery, corruption and humiliation.
Shoutout to everyone out at the #HandsOff protests. You’re doing the work. These insane Trump tariffs are nothing but economic sabotage—hurting workers, farmers, and small businesses. He’s never built anything but chaos. Keep fighting. #StopTheTariffs
This is how it needs to look in EVERY major city. Well done NY, but with a population of 8.4 million we need you to have closer to 300k out. Good start.
Thanks to the folks (mostly young women) who joined hands to block the cross street traffic, and those who pulled tape across Fifth Ave to let traffic through, so we could progress safely. Such organization for an unplanned march was mind-boggling.
Not disputing it, but what is your source for the numbers in Manhattan this afternoon? I was there, but toward the front of the crowd, so it was hard to gauge how many people followed.
Bravo New York! 👏👏👏... If I were Trump, I would be scared shitless to walk the streets of America EVER again!... Is Trump disliked?... NO, he is DESPISED for trying to DESTROY America!
I just made this meme. Feel free to share.
It'd be AWESOME to see people charge the golf course and go after him, regardless of security or secret service. They can't stop everybody.
Now is the time to keep the momentum going! To keep organizing in your local community, you connect with an Indivisible group in your area at https://indivisible.org/groups 🙂
There are weekly protests going on in some places. 2 in my purple county in Oregon. 70+ and growing in McMinnville, every week for at least 6 weeks.There may be many others, but the media rarely covers them.
But Donald Trump said NY loved him. Barbara Walters told us everyone in NY knew Donald Trump just gushing first time I remember hearing about the guy. Trump said he could kill someone on 5th Ave and get away with it. Congrats to the protesters boycott all Trump products and Tesla.
Bravo America !!
The Free World stands with you
Well done !!
Same time same place next weekend..
and the next weekend...
and the following weekend
Keep going until trump releases his thugs,
his private militia -
Proud boys and Oath keepers
Goad trump into showing his real intent-
We had this in spades with Brexit (the same thing as Trumpism in the UK) but with orders of magnitude more people on the street pro rata. It made no difference whatsoever.
The largest anti Nazi rallies were held in Germany just as the Nazis took power. Large protests don't mean anything... Don't just protest join groups that do things unions, feeding homeless picking up trash build off this march don't just let it be ignored
There is so much fake news and algorithm bubbles that large groups of people didn't even know there was a huge protest today. Or think the protests were pro trump
The free Palestine anti Nazi marches last year were also bigger. But Agee, it's so much more than just marching. Which is why last year it included demands for policy change. Shame it was ignored at great cost.
I did not say "they didn't mean anything". I said they were not enough. Look at you spending your time fighting the left rather than fighting trump, typical
I am a trump hating Bernie supporter who thinks trump is a self proclaimed sexual assaulter court affirmed racist & racist. Who is dumb as a rock. And I was also at those protests. But the fact is he ignored the women's March the Nazis ignored the anti Nazi marches. And Trump will ignore this one.
And yet Canada, Greenland, and the world has no idea, because the US State owned media won't cover it, or barely covers it. FU @CNN, @MSMBc, @NPR, @PBS,
From the Paris Agreement to NATO, he has dismantled the international cooperation framework built over decades, making the United States a "problem child" on the global stage.
In former times, the US was criticized for trying to dominate or “buy” int‘l orgs. Now it‘s tossing its influence into the garbage can and provoking retaliation with it’s bullying.
Yay! Now call your house reps (NY has many gop house reps) to vote against the budget passed by the senate! No to 4 trillion in tax cuts for the billionaires, while raising the debt limit by 1.5 trillion!
I can only hope this fervor,this assembly of so many like-minded Americans carries over to every single election whether it be for the Presidency,House of representatives,Senate, Gubernatorial ,Secretary of State,State Legislatures, Attorney Generals,Supreme Court Justices,judges,sheriffs,Mayors,
City council members,and in all elections going forward.If elections is the only way our votes will count,then let it be as strong a sentiment as these rallies at the polls.Then truly we can make a lasting change.Republicans have shown you their true colors.Now is the time we show ours by voting in
unprecedented numbers never seen before in the history of our great nation.Never let Republicans ever again decide our fate.Otherwise my dear friends these rallies were in vain.Emotions alone will not create change.Educating, Organizing,and Mobilizing the masses will.
THIS is the kind of show out that we need to pressure the regime. Hopefully the next time it happens, there will be at least double or triple those numbers.
Looks like way, way more people than were at either of Trump's inaugurations, and that was just New York.
Keep protesting.
Keep boycotting.
Let the dictator and Congress hear our voice for change.
🇨🇦 We love you America! 🇨🇦
Get these fucking assholes out of power.
You “the people” have a say in YOUR country. YOU have the power. Not the rich bastards who are lying to you and cheating you out of living your best life.
Sort this shit out..!!

I don't see that many American flags...at t___p rallies there are so many flags that it boggles the mind - at Nazi rallies there were so many flags that it boggles the mind...maybe waving thousands of flags is a non-verbal way of saying "I'm more patriotic than thou"...the flag-waving fools...
Went 2 NYC protest with my walker re: recent back surgery. Tried 2 stay extreme right, not to hit anyone.
Suddenly I was way up front NEXT to the banner, holding walker & banner w folks arms around me to help. Let Trump see disabled folk marching. So if you see a blonde w a walker shouting, its me
Thank you for going and doing your part. Awesome you got to lead the way. So proud of you. You represent all Americans. We are all handicapped one way or another some you can’t see and some you can 💙💪🏻.
What, no kettling? In 2003, when we protested the threat of war, we were kettled. Someone in a wheelchair near me was denied exit in order to attend to a call of nature. On the way back to Penn Station I saw a SWAT team on its way to where I'd just left.

Love NY💙🇺🇸
It not only stayed orderly, but 100,000 of us went to Eataly, Wagamama and elsewhere for cappuccino afterwards.
This seriously sucks. Instead of protesting and marching we could be living & reaping the benefits of her administration.
Feel the strength we send you.

Worse, what proportion didn't vote at all

I saw 1 (ONE) cop the whole day.

But not enough.
Some slogans and signs, and some thousands of people on a single day won't stop fascism.
People need to go to the streets every damn week! And there are millions of peaceful protesters needed to stop the coup.

In yours and my discharge."
One of a kind, NYC.
Stay angry 👊🏾🧔🏾♂️
Great.
now what ?
Because protests alone won't stop Trump.
Whats the strategy ?
Tactics ?
Because if the idea is to protest for.4 years until next elections then America is finished.
So what's the plan ?
Economic pressure (boycott Tesla, for example)
Bold conversations with neighbors and family
Constant communication with electeds
Supporting civil society institutions
And so on
When voters turn, the tide turns.
But who is building the stool
Where are the legs being fitted together as part of the plan
Because you need to realise what’s happening
This is Americas End of the Soviet Union moment
The Berlin Wall of liberal democracy has been broken down
The old America is over
Thank you!
