11. This has turned into an anti-tRump and anti-MAGA/GOP protest

Of course Musk is included but basically everything that the GOP has done is a valid issue to protest. I've seen a lot of signs directed at the Republicans. I'm re-using my anti-tRump signs from 2017. I have them back to back so I people behind me can see my signs, too.

With over 1,000 protests planned this will be one to remember, like The Women's March in 2017. This will be historic.

I've been an activist since 1979 and this is incredible. It has grown so quickly and so large. Many people who have never even been to a protest before are going to this one. There are about 14 protests throughout Europe, too. I think they are underestimating the turnout, from what I've been seeing and reading over the past few weeks.
