Thousands of people mobilized across the United States on Saturday to protest Donald Trump's re-election, moved by several of his campaign's focal policies, such as reproductive rights and mass deportation of immigrants.

In New York City, protesters from an advocacy group organized a demonstration in front of Trump International Hotel to mainly protest his plans for immigrants and demand workers' rights. They held signs with slogans such as "We Protect Us" and "Here we are, and we’re not leaving!" Women's rights were also a topic of protest, as demonstrators asked, "Mr. President, how long must women wait for liberty?"

Similar waves were seen in Washington DC, where protesters heavily focused on women's reproductive rights and freedom of choice. Signs read slogans "Where’s my liberty when I have no choice?" and "Well-behaved women don’t make history."

In Seattle, demonstrators opted to protest the US administration regardless of its political representation, and mainly showed solidarity with Palestine and Gaza, as the Israeli war rages on. The US government was described as a "two-party war machine" as protesters encouraged others to organize and mobilize, while others chanted "Build the people’s movement and fight war, repression, and genocide!"

On Friday, Portland, Oregon also saw anti-Trump and anti-fascism protests, particularly when it came to citizens' most basic rights, such as healthcare. Remarkably, outgoing president Joe Biden was also a point of protest, with one demonstrator saying "We’re here because we’ve been fighting for years for health, housing and education. And whether it was Trump, or [Joe] Biden before this, we have not been getting it and we are wanting to push to actually get that realized."

In Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the "My Body, My Choice" pro-choice movement was heavily present, while other protesters explained what a Trump administration would look like for the nation, saying "Trump is an attack on all of us so we need to unite, we need to get organized, join movements, study and learn together."

Protesters affirmed that despite concerns and fear over the United States' incoming reality under Trump's leadership, they would continue protesting and demanding their rights be served.

Donald Trump's re-election as the 47th president of the United States, a remarkable political comeback, has sent shockwaves across the nation and internationally.

At 78, Trump becomes both the oldest person and the first convicted criminal to win the White House. He defeated Vice President Kamala Harris, who was vying to make history as the first woman, first Black woman, and first South Asian American president in the US.
