Where Will Your ‘Not My Presidents Day’ Rally Be Held Today?

The protests against President Donald Trump show no signs of slowing. In fact, even on this day off for most, anti-Trump activists are using the federal holiday to participate in actions that give outlet to their frustration with the executive branch.

Regular folks-turned-protest leaders around the country have organized marches in cities such as Los Angeles, Chicago and New York in opposition to the Trump presidency.

“While we acknowledge that Donald Trump holds the current title, the policies he’s trying to put in place are not the beliefs shared by the majority of the people,” Nova Calise, an organizer of the New York event, told USA Today.

On Saturday, Trump held his own rally in Florida, drawing roughly 9,000 people to an aircraft hangar in Melbourne.
