Marchers Call out Donald Trump at #WomensMarch2018
It should be noted that the first women’s march was done as a protest to Trump’s inauguration.
Beautiful weather all over our great country, a perfect day for all Women to March. Get out there now to celebrate the historic milestones and unprecedented economic success and wealth creation that has taken place over the last 12 months. Lowest female unemployment in 18 years!

Despite Trump’s attempt at supporting the Women’s Empowerment Movement over Twitter, many actually came out specifically to protest him. Even his tweet encouraging citizens to come out and support it is self-serving, pointing to his time in office as a contribution to America’s economic success and low female unemployment rates.
We think Nancy Sinatra summed up our thoughts pretty well with this reply.
Shut up. Just shut up.

One of our favorite signs shows Vladimir Putin controlling Trump using several thin strings and labeling Trump as “Putin’s puppet.” Others call for impeachment and accuse him or racism and trans-phobia. “Grab em by the rug” is written across one, referring to Trump’s notorious comment about grabbing women “by the pussy.”
So many great signs at the 2018 San Jose Women’s March. This is my fav #NotMyPresident #womensmarchsanjose #womensmarch pic.twitter.com/b0ItOKzEGj
