A wave of organized protests erupted in Chicago following Donald Trump’s election victory, raising questions about political divides and societal cohesion. Protesters gathered with their megaphones coordinating chants. They also were in support of Palestinians showcasing homemade posterboards.
Protest Details and Organization
Following Donald Trump’s election victory, Chicago became a focal point for radical left activism. Demonstrators, chiefly outside the Trump Hotel, voiced strong opposition to Trump, accusing him of being a “fascist” and “racist.” Protest leaders effectively coordinated the rallies, ensuring protest routes were approved and organized.
The movement, characterized by chants and megaphones, sought to challenge the perceived authoritarian tendencies of Trump. Large-scale participation was facilitated by social media coordination, echoing sentiments expressed by prominent political figures.
Influence of Public Figures
Leading the charge, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) made bold declarations on social media, suggesting America is entering an era of fascism. Her comments, “We are about to enter a political period of fascism and authoritarianism,” resonated deeply with her followers, spurring further mobilizations.
Critics, however, view these remarks as inciting division, potentially undermining the social fabric. While proponents argue such activism is essential, opponents fear its propensity to escalate unrest and jeopardize societal peace.
AOC is implying that Trump is Hitler
But I’ve been hearing all day that Trump is the divisive one
Fuck it, I’m gonna speak the truth
To the left, you have been the divisive side. You have been lying through your teeth. Fear mongering. Wake up.

Broader Implications and Funding
The protests underscore a deep-rooted political division within the United States, with criticism highlighting the role of leftist nonprofits. Alleged funding from affluent donors has been a focal point in discussions about the scope and sustainability of these movements.
In response to these activities, the Trump administration has advocated for a shift toward law and order. There is a growing consensus among Trump’s supporters and a proportion of the American populace favoring a move away from progressive policies to restore societal equilibrium.
Why is no one pointing out the obvious with these anti- Donald Trump protests taking place?
Where did these huge crowds of people magically appear from with premade professional banners and tons of protest signs all ready to go within 24 hours notice?
