US President Donald Trump responded to Saturday’s massive “No Kings" protests by posting a series of AI-generated videos on his Truth Social platform in which he appears as a king. In one clip, he is wearing a crown and flying a fighter jet that drops what appears to be faeces on anti-Trump protesters with Kenny Loggins’ Danger Zone playing in the background.

On Instagram, TeamTrump trolled the “No Kings" protests by sharing another AI-generated video showing President Trump dressed like a king standing in front of the White House, set to the music of Andrea Bocelli.

Huge crowds took to the streets in all 50 US states on Saturday during the “No Kings" protests, venting anger over President Donald Trump’s hardline policies. Republicans ridiculed the demonstrations as “Hate America" rallies. Organizers claimed seven million people participated nationwide, from New York to Los Angeles, with protests also emerging in small cities across the heartland and near Trump’s Florida residence of Mar-a-Lago.

“This is what democracy looks like!" chanted thousands in Washington near the US Capitol, where the federal government remained shut down for a third week amid a legislative deadlock.

“Hey hey ho ho, Donald Trump has got to go!" protesters shouted, waving American flags, including at least one flown upside down as a signal of distress. Colorful signs demanded protection of democracy, while others called for the abolition of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the agency at the center of Trump’s anti-immigrant crackdown.

“There is nothing more American than saying, ‘We don’t have kings’ and exercising our right to peacefully protest," said Leah Greenberg, co-founder of Indivisible, a progressive organization that led planning of Saturday’s events.

Demonstrators filled Times Square in New York City, where police said they made “zero protest-related arrests" even as more than 100,000 people rallied peacefully across all five boroughs.

Events in Boston, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Denver, Chicago and Seattle also drew crowds that each appeared to encompass thousands, if not tens of thousands, of people.

On the West Coast, more than a dozen rallies occurred around the Los Angeles area, including the primary site downtown. In Seattle, demonstrators filled a parade route that stretched for more than a mile from downtown through the Seattle Center plaza around the city’s landmark Space Needle. More than 25,000 protested peacefully in San Diego, police said.

The protests reflected growing unease among many Americans, mainly on the ideological left, with developments such as the criminal prosecution of Trump’s perceived political enemies, his militarized immigration crackdown and the sending of Guard troops into US cities — a move Trump has said was aimed at fighting crime and protecting immigration agents.
