Donald Trump's signature Seal of the President of the United States

In 2024, Donald Trump became the president-elect of the United States after winning the 2024 United States presidential election against incumbent Vice President Kamala Harris.

Protests in the United States

Protesters gathered in San Jose and Berkeley, California to protest both parties. An anti-Trump rally was held in downtown Cleveland, Ohio the night after the election for about an hour before protestors disbursed. Other protests were held that night in Chicago, Illinois, New York City, New York, and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania with protestors outside the Trump International Hotel and Tower in Chicago filmed chanting "Donald Trump, you fascist clown."

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) issued a statement the day after Trump's election indicating that they would continue to fight against Trump's rhetoric and unlawful plans such as the mass deportation plans outlined in Project 2025.

The People's March was held in cities across the U.S. in January 2025.

Protests in other countries

Shortly after being declared winner, protests would begin against him. The first protest to occur was Just Stop Oil protesters spraying orange paint on the American Embassy in London.

The Human Rights Watch issued a statement indicating that they were concerned about Trump's second term shortly after he was elected based on his prior rights-abusing record from his first term, and that "Independent institutions and civil society groups, including Human Rights Watch, will need to do all we can to hold him and his administration accountable for abuses."

On December 24, 2024, a protest was held at the U.S. Embassy in Panama City over Trump's threat to take back the Panama Canal. Protesters also referred to him as a "public enemy" of Panama.
