"Every single thing that comes out of this president's mouth, and every action he takes, is contrary to what I believe, and frankly I've had enough," one of the protesters, Mark Ransdell,

DC Scarpelli, an actor and activist, described the protest's goals this way to the station: "Resist loud, so loud that we won't even hear the door slam when he's dragged out of office."

A similar scene played out 400 miles south, in Los Angeles, where thousands of demonstrators were joined by Rep. Brad Sherman, D-California,

"Every day, Democrats, Republicans, the entire world is shocked by the latest example of America's amateur president," Sherman said Sunday.

In New York City, protesters gathered outside a Trump hotel, where the now-familiar scene of dueling protests erupted in a shouting match, according to an Associated Press reporter.

In Philadelphia, there wasn't a shouting match but, instead, a fight: Two anti-Trump protesters were arrested after a supporter of the president was attacked outside a downtown bar,

It wasn't just the big cities that drew crowds, either.

From Davenport, Iowa, protesters marched across the Centennial Bridge to Schweibert Park in Rock Island, Illinois.

"It's interesting that this is going on during the Fourth of July weekend, and I hope as we reflect on how great this country is we can also reflect on how important it is to put country over party," Dan Morris, of the Illinois activist group Rock Island County Indivisible,

And in Amarillo, in the Texas Panhandle, a small march made its way through downtown to the local office of Republican U.S. Rep. Mac Thornberry,

The march ended in a "die-in" to express support for the "99% of Americans either victimized or exploited by the Trump Regime," the organizers, the High Plains Circle of Non-Violence, said in a statement.
