In Palm Beach and in Miami, protesters speak out against President Trump
A day of protests in South Florida culminated in Palm Beach as more than 1,000 people gathered to speak out against President Donald Trump outside the Mar-a-Lago estate.
The protesters made their way to his resort after marching from Trump Plaza in West Palm Beach. Trump was in Palm Beach for a weekend visit — his first since his inauguration — and for the International Red Cross Ball.
Protesters held colorful signs and chanted messages like “We want a leader, not a creepy tweeter” and “Hey hey, ho ho. Donald Trump has got to go.”
Many said they were standing in support of Muslims, minorities and people they felt were at risk because of Trump’s recent executive order temporarily banning travelers from seven predominantly Muslim countries. Late Saturday, that order was tied up in the courts.
