Red alert for Trump: ‘No Kings’ rally, show of political power The massive “No Kings” rally in front of the Minnesota State Capitol, which included Bruce Springsteen and Jane Fonda, was not the most notable protest event held on March 28.
More notable were the ‘No Kings’ marches held in Staunton, Virginia, Salisbury, Maryland, Rockford, Illinois, Beaver, Pennsylvania, Eugene, Oregon, Chillicothe, Ohio, Port Huron, Michigan, and Flatwoods, West Virginia. And rallies continued in more than 3,000 places across the country and around the world.
Sarah Elizabeth Greer, 56, who was marching in Manhattan, described it as "democracy's sacred entanglement" and marched with two small dogs on a cart with handwritten signs reading "NO BARKING" and "BITE the Power."
This left-leaning protest, which branded President Donald Trump as an aspiring monarch and dictator and raised revolutionary-era slogans, had the widest geographic scope of any single day-long protest in the United States in the past half-century. This includes familiar areas like New York, Los Angeles, and Austin, as well as all 50 states and every district, even rural and Republican strongholds.
Although the overall mood was upbeat and the march was largely peaceful, this third No Kings protest was a clear display of political power that could have repercussions for the 2026 midterm elections and beyond.
With the Republican Party losing a series of special elections, including the Florida House of Representatives election, including the district where the president's home is located, this unprecedented protest was another sign of the upheaval that will occur in the midterm elections in November.
Meanwhile, at the twilight rally held in West Palm Beach, Florida, a march continued along ‘President Donald Trump Boulevard’ toward the Mar-a-Lago villa where President Trump was spending the weekend. Police turned away the protesters before they could get within sight or hearing distance of the villa.
The White House has already dismissed the protests as meaningless. Before the protest, spokeswoman Abigail Jackson called the event a "Trump mania therapy session" of interest only to "paid reporters."
Republican National Committee (NRCC) spokesman Mike Marinella called it an “American hate rally.”
