Thousands of people took part in anti-Trump "No Kings" protests in major cities across the United States, according to reports. In St. Matthews, Kentucky, demonstrators gathered along Frankfort Avenue on Saturday afternoon for a No Kings protest directed at President Donald Trump.
The event included participation by the Kentuckiana Raging Grannies and Grumpy Grampies, who sang songs during the demonstration. Organizers and participants also used the rally to promote early voting, with the No Kings rallies returning to Louisville for that purpose.
According to the account, a lone supporter of Donald Trump carrying a TRUMP 2028 flag walked through the anti-Trump crowd that lined the sidewalks on Frankfort Avenue on Saturday. The protest remained along the sidewalks as participants demonstrated against the president.
The demonstrations reflect continuing public mobilization around the Trump administration, with the No Kings rallies staged in several main US cities. The reports did not provide official crowd estimates or details of any incidents beyond the scene described in St. Matthews.
Mehr News reported on the protests and published photographs from the demonstrations, noting that the No Kings rallies returned to Louisville to promote early voting.
