Millions angry with Trump set to fill US streets

MINNEAPOLIS, Mar 28 (AFP): Massive nationwide protests against US President Donald Trump were set for Saturday as millions of people vent fury over what they see as his authoritarian bent and other forms of cruel, law-trampling governance.

It is the third time in less than a year that

Americans will take to the streets as part of a grassroots movement called "No Kings," the most vocal and visual conduit for opposition to Trump since he began his second

term in January 2025.

And now they have something new to fume over-the war in Iran that Trump launched alongside Israel, with ever-shifting goals and timelines for completion.

The first such nationwide protest day came in June on Trump's 79th birthday and coincided with a military parade in Washington that he insisted on

holding.

Several million people turned out, from New York to San Francisco and many places in between.

The second "No Kings" day in October drew an estimated seven million protesters, according to organizers.

The goal now is to bring out even more people on Saturday, as Trump's approval rating is low at around 40 percent and midterm elections loom in November, when Trump's Republicans could lose control of both chambers.
