Demonstrations held in front of state capitol buildings across country in opposition to US president and Musk
On February 18, 2025, during Presidents' Day, protests against the Trump administration took place in Washington, D.C., and other U.S. cities. Protesters, including Teal Quinn and Patricia Jacobs, displayed signs comparing the administration to authoritarian regimes, questioning if it was 1935 or 2025. They criticized Trump's policies, executive orders, and the influence of figures like Elon Musk, labeling the administration's direction as autocratic. Despite Trump's strong poll numbers, Democratic support was low, with only 31% favorable in a Quinnipiac University poll. Protesters, hopeful for future demonstrations, expressed concerns about the 2028 election and potential Supreme Court grants of immunity to Trump.
