The parade, which coincides with Trump’s 79th birthdayhas been criticized by the conveners and other figures that consider that the president seeks to feed his ego with an event that is actually celebrated to honor the 250th anniversary of the United States Army Foundation.
The protest day It has been baptized as “day without kings” (no Kings in English)because the organizations behind them consider that the New Yorker is acting as one from his return to the White House, and they also highlight that the president is using the army, which was founded to face precisely the British monarchy, to cover himself with glory.
“June 14, Flag Day, President Trump He wants tanks in the streets and a television exhibition of domination for your birthday. A show that aims to simulate strength. But true power is not exhibited in Washington. It stands everywhere“, Says the call of the ‘day without kings.”
“From the apples of the cities to the small towns, from the stairs of the courts to the community parks, We take measures to reject authoritarianism and show the world how democracy really is, ”adds the message posted on the Internet.
No act has been convened in Washington Aigna to try to prevent what happens in the capital is “The center of gravity”And it is expected that the protest of Philadelphia, city 200 kilometers northeast of the capital and considered the cradle of the independence and American democracy, be one of the largest that will be held tomorrow.
“On June 14, we will introduce ourselves where he is not: To say no to thrones, not to the crowns, not the kings“, Concludes the message of the organizers.
Both the military parade and the ‘day without kings’ also arrive after a tumultuous week in which Protests against aggressive raids against Trump government migrants They have given protests and disturbances in Los Angeles since June 6, and that They have found support in other cities with hundreds of arrests throughout the country.
Trump has said that in Washington it will be celebrated “high”And he warned that “If there is any protest, when they leave they will face a very powerful force“
