The first No Kings Day, on June 14, was one of the largest days of peaceful protest in US history. Millions of people, in thousands of places, peacefully took to the streets with one voice to say: No thrones. No crowns. NO KINGS

At a time when Americans everywhere needed courage, we showed it. In a moment that so many people felt alone, we reminded them there are millions of us banding together to save our democracy. And on a day Trump wanted to feel strong, we made the story about the people’s power, instead.

But Trump keeps doubling down — stoking division and anger, building a secret police force, sending the military into our streets, trying to rig the midterms, and suggesting (twice) that “maybe we’d like a dictator.” That’s not the behavior of the president. That’s the behavior of a wannabe-king.

It’s time to remind Trump that this is America. And in America, we don’t do kings.

Let’s make the second No Kings Day even bigger, bolder, and more unforgettable than the first! Click here to see the map and join a nonviolent protest near you on October 18.

For some reason, Google Drive sometimes doesn’t play nicely with the shortlink tool we’ve been using. If you click a link like “go.ltdo.org/xxx” and see the graphic below, just click “Open the document directly” to get to your destination. I’m still trying to figure out why this happens and how to fix it.
