Donald Trump Protest in Streets of NY
A large inflatable chicken with a Trump-style haircut was put up near the White House last week after previously becoming an emblem for the Tax March demanding the commander-in-chief’s tax returns. “Trump has made white power groups and other hate groups feel legitimate”.
Trump briefly waved as he walked alone into the White House, which is under renovation, and ignored shouted questions about this weekend’s race-fueled clashes in Charlottesville, Virginia.

About 1,000 people gathered at two rallies Monday night in Salt Lake City to condemn white supremacy and racism, CNN affiliate KSL reported.
Lee said after the November election, he was stunned at how many people would vote for a candidate without fully knowing what his policies would be.
“I stay out of Manhattan because it’s so disruptive to go to Manhattan”, Trump told reporters on Thursday at his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey.
“We’re here this afternoon and this evening … probably won’t be coming back here, but I’m going to put it up in Chelsea”, the Upper West Side resident said.

Mr Bannon’s critics have labelled him a white supremacist. “But he’s so against every other issue”, he said.
The president in a Monday statement sought to clean up the controversy, specifically condemning the Ku Klux Klan and neo-Nazis who participated in the rally, after lawmakers slammed him for not providing a stronger response.
Many protesters felt that though Trump had not seen them, their presence at the demonstration was effective. “It has no place in America”, Trump said Monday in Washington.
“Once he came to NY, I knew I was coming”, he said. Sessions added: “He’s been firm on this from the beginning”.
Mayor de Blasio and Governor Cuomo repeatedly called on the President to denounce white supremacists over the weekend, both local officials tweeting that that the events in Charlottesville were domestic terrorism.
Dozens of officers stood guard in the surrounding area and at least one woman protesting was arrested, as angry demonstrators rounded on those in uniform shouting “Who do you serve?” Senior aides were dispatched to the morning news shows, yet they struggled at times to explain the president’s position.
