Overview

  • Hundreds of thousands protested in major U.S. cities, including Washington, New York, Atlanta, and Chicago, under the slogan 'Hands Off.'
  • Demonstrators condemned Trump's sweeping tariffs, which have caused over $6 trillion in stock market losses and raised fears of economic recession.
  • Protests also criticized the dismantling of federal agencies and mass firings of government employees under Trump’s administration.
  • Elon Musk faced backlash for his involvement in government restructuring, despite his recent criticism of Trump’s tariffs and calls for a U.S.-EU free trade zone.
  • The protests mark a significant mobilization of opposition, with Democratic leaders and activists increasingly vocal against Trump’s policies and perceived authoritarianism.
