Protesters pour into the streets from east coast to west in second wave of demonstrations this month \u2013 key US politics stories from Saturday 19 April at a glance
Protesters poured into the streets across the country again on Saturday in the second wave of demonstrations this month, as organizers seek to turn discontent with Donald Trump<\/a>\u2019s presidency into a mass movement that will eventually translate into ballot box action.
Large protests took place from east coast to west, in major cities like Washington<\/a>, New York and Chicago, as well as Rhode Island, Maryland, Wisconsin, Tennessee, South Carolina, among many others. Americans abroad also signalled their opposition to the Trump agenda in the Irish capital of Dublin and other cities.
In San Francisco<\/a>, protesters formed a human chain to spell out the words, \u201cImpeach Remove!\u201d while holding the American flag upside down.
The 50501 movement behind the \u201cHands Off\u201d protests said it was seeking to send a message to opposition politicians and ordinary voters that vocal resistance to Trump\u2019s policies was essential. It also said that demonstrators were supporters of different parties.
\u201cWe have registered Democrats, registered independents and registered Republicans all marching because they all believe in America, because they all believe in a fair government that puts people before profits,\u201d said organizer Heather Dunn.
