The night began with protesters chanting variants of “no” while marching through the streets:

 

 

The chants changed to “no KKK, no fascist U.S.A, no Trump!” once the protesters arrived at the National Press Club:

 

 

 

 

A woman and her companions took it upon themselves to follow around men wearing “Make America Great Again” hats and tell them to go home:
