To say things are not going well for Donald Trump would be an understatement.

In just the last 48 hours, 12 U.S. soldiers were seriously injured in a massive strike on the Prince Sultan air base in Saudi Arabia. Iranian-allied Houthis launched attacks against Israel, expanding yet another front in a war the president is trying desperately to bring to a close. U.S. stocks capped off a fifth consecutive week of losses. Gasoline prices in California and Washington reached an all-time high, and a new report shows that U.S. inflation is expected to exceed four percent by the end of the year.

Meanwhile, on Saturday more than ten million people across the U.S. and hundreds of thousands more around the world took to the streets with many different complaints, but one common slogan: “Fuck Trump!”

From London and Rome, to New York and Los Angeles (and a thousand small towns and cities in every state in-between), demonstrators rallied and marched to protest Trump’s increasingly unpopular policies and the international Far Right he supports. Like previous No Kings days, protesters carried signs and chanted slogans criticizing Trump, calling attention to his ties to child trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, and decrying his authoritarian overreach.

Many protesters also raised more concrete political demands related to the economy, the war in Iran, Trump’s imperialist policies in Latin America, and the repression of immigrants by ICE and the CBP. In this way, many of the No Kings protests this third time around took on a different, more combative, and more working-class character, particularly with respect to the war.

No Ice, No War, No Trump

The official slogan of the protests was “No ICE! No war! No Kings!” Outrage against ICE has been a staple of the No Kings mobilizations, but with the war on Iran now approaching the one-month mark, this added a new layer to the rallies. Left Voice correspondents in New York City, Minneapolis, Detroit, and Los Angeles reported widespread anti-war sentiments. In Minneapolis, during a speech by Bernie Sanders, the crowd broke out into a spontaneous chant of “End the war!”

In New York City, more than 100,000 protesters gathered in Columbus Circle on the south side of Central Park before heading down Broadway through Times Square to 34th Street. Protesters carried signs that read “No War with Iran,” “Chinga La Migra,” and “No War on Cuba.” Left Voice members marched alongside other leftists and unions with banners reading “ABOLISH ICE/FIGHT FOR FULL RIGHTS FOR IMMIGRANTS” and “DOWN WITH THE IMPERIALIST WAR ON IRAN,” in an effort to bring a revolutionary perspective to the growing fight against the Far Right.

There were important expressions of the labor movement in the streets as well. In New York, PSC-CUNY had a large contingent made up of faculty who have been fighting to defend immigrant communities in New York. In Los Angeles, SEIU had a strong presence, and other unions like UNITE HERE and UTLA were visible. Following the mass economic blackout in Minneapolis at the beginning of the year, many Americans have begun to see the role labor can play in movements against oppression. In fact, at the rally in Minneapolis it was announced that May Day will be the next major day of action.

However, the labor bureaucracy has largely limited the participation of unions, encouraging their members to participate as individuals, but not mobilizing their memberships in large, clearly visible contingents.

In Minnesota, where neighborhood groups organized to push ICE out of Minneapolis, a huge flagship rally of tens of thousands of people was held outside the capital building in St. Paul. The rally — the largest in Minnesota history — included speeches by left-wing Democratic Party politicians like Bernie Sanders and Ilhan Omar, as well as performances by Bruce Springsteen and Rage Against The Machine’s Tom Morello.

Though at times more like a Democratic party campaign rally than a protest, the first speaker kicked off the rally with the chant “No Kings, No ICE, No War.” This shows how the fight against ICE in Minneapolis has changed the narrative since the last No Kings Rally in October. It also shows a growing rejection of Trump’s war against Iran and his attacks on Venezuela and Cuba.

And from the tiny-town end of the spectrum, people in the little pueblo of Rio Piedras, Costa Rica, gathered on #NoKingsDay to speak out against US Imperialism and Cruelty.

Other cities that have consistently turned out for previous No Kings days — such as Philadelphia, Boston, Chicago, Atlanta, and San Diego — once again flooded the streets. Many participants in small towns throughout the country proudly shared their participation on social media.

Working-Class Organization to Defeat Trump

Today’s massive demonstrations are more evidence that Trump, whose approval ratings continue to fall, may in fact be the most unpopular U.S. president ever. They also show that there are huge sectors of people across the U.S. who are hungry for an alternative to the endless series of crises and wars they’ve been offered by both parties. While the Democratic Party and the organizers of many of today’s rallies are doing everything they can to drive this energy and anger back into the Democratic Party and the midterm elections, discontent with both parties remains high.

Likewise, as the idea of a general strike continues to gain traction among both the Left and the progressive wing of the labor bureaucracy, millions of people are looking to organize beyond marches like these that are called every three months and only last a single day. Imagine what this same number of people could accomplish if they took this struggle into their workplaces.

However, to actually defeat Trump and ensure that another monster does not take his place, the working class and oppressed have to organize to put an end to the system that produced him in the first place. This means rejecting the false alternative of the Democrats or the idea that the working class can somehow vote its way out of this mess.

Despite their limitations, these protests point the way toward the importance of uniting all of our struggles, and the necessity of building a united front to defeat Trump’s regime and lay the ground for a true independent working-class alternative with a socialist horizon.
