[WATCH LIVE] Women’s March on Washington

US President Donald Trump points to the stands as he walks with his wife Melania during the Inaugural Parade.

But the property tycoon responded in the same tweet by saying celebrities on the march had “hurt [the] cause badly”.

Trump, a Republican sworn-in Friday, didn’t mention names.

Trump drew the third-biggest Nielsen ratings for an inauguration, after the first swearing-ins for President Ronald Reagan (about 42 million, in 1981) and President Barack Obama (about 38 million, in 2009).

Hundreds of thousands of people took part in the Women’s March in Washington, DC a day after Donald Trump began his presidency.

Organiser Mindy Freiband, a United States citizen now living in Australia, told The Guardian they were expected more than 3,000 people to join the demonstration. That, however, was not to be.

For them to actually stay and occupy Washington, D.C., would cost millions per day-an unrealistic possibility.

The Chicago Tribune reported that 150,000 people had turned out in the city, jamming streets downtown. Similar protests were noted across the world – one even in Antarctica.

Tens of thousands of protesters carrying signs that read: “Women’s rights are human rights” and “A woman’s place is in the resistance” funneled past Trump Tower to thunderous cheers on tony Fifth Avenue, where he conducted almost all of his postelection business. Attendees were instructed to use numbered streets to march to the north, turn left on Constitution Ave., go to the Washington Monument, and turn to the right.

Ingram said planning for such an event was not an exact science.

Trump weighed in on the controversy on his personal Twitter account early Sunday, railing against unspecified celebrities, and accusing protesters of not having voted.

Trump supporters talk about what they hope to see done under his administration. One such protest in Nigeria resulted in the deaths of 20 people.

They say the demonstrators damaged vehicles, destroyed property and set small fires while armed with crowbars and hammers.

Organizers of the marches in Seattle, Denver and Portland all claimed more than 100,000 protesters had participated.

“People are pissed”, she said.

Laura McNaughton made hats for herself and her friends.

“I have thought an terrible lot about blowing up the White House”.

Organizers of the march had been granted a permit allowing for a gathering of 200,000 attendees, though preliminary reports have placed the actual number of participants at upwards of twice that amount.
