Nationwide protests against President Trump's policies

In the United States hundreds of thousands of people have taken part in nationwide demonstrations against President Trump's policies; the so-called No Kings protests want to send the message that Donald Trump is not a king and to stand against his crackdown on undocumented migrants, the deployment of National Guard troops, and cuts to federal jobs.
