On President's Day, thousands protested across the U.S. against Trump administration policies regarding government cuts and immigration deportations. Organized by the grassroots 50501 Movement, rallies took place despite severe weather. Protesters expressed discontent with what they viewed as anti-democratic actions by the Trump administration, as well as criticisms directed at billionaire Elon Musk. While protesters rallied, the White House defended Trump, citing his electoral success and commitment to restoring common sense policies and America's global dominance, asserting he is a leader for all Americans.
Protest organizers said the rallies were against "anti-democratic and illegal actions of the Trump administration and its plutocratic allies."
Many protesters turned out in cities impacted by polar-vortex related frigid temperatures.
Trump "swiftly took action to deliver on his promises of restoring common sense policies, strengthening the economy, and re-establishing America's dominance on the world stage."
Harrison Fields said Trump "received a resounding mandate from the American people," emphasizing the President's commitment to prioritizing America's interests.
