The people are NOT backing down! #NeverTrump!
Immediately after Donald Trump‘s pre-inauguration event in Washington D.C., thousands of New Yorkers organized outside of Trump International Hotel & Tower near Columbus Circle to protest the businessman’s upcoming presidency.
Celebs including Alec Baldwin, Mark Ruffalo, Michael Moore, Reverend Al Sharpton, Robert De Niro, Sally Field, Rosie Perez, Marisa Tomei, Julianne Moore, Cynthia Nixon, and Shailene Woodley gave speeches to denounce Trump’s views on immigration, global warming, and his racist and sexist rhetoric.
