On Saturday, large crowds of protesters gathered in cities across the US to protest President Trump, marking the largest nationwide demonstration of opposition since his inauguration in January. The “Hands Off” protests were organized across 1,200 locations, including all 50 states. Thousands of people participated in rallies in cities such as Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, and Washington DC, among others. Journalist and historian, former speechwriter in the Clinton administration, Andrew Yarrow, joins us from Washington for more.
“tens of thousands” is a better descriptor for any single major city. More like a few million nationwide.
