Thousands of protesters marched across the United States on Saturday, opposing President Donald Trump and tech billionaire Elon Musk for their actions regarding downsizing, the economy, newly issued tariffs, human rights and other ongoing problems. Amid this, a picture of a protester dressed as Pok¨¦mon character Pikachu is making the rounds on the internet.
Amid the ongoing protests, the Pikachu-dressed protester stole the limelight during the anti-Donald Trump protests. The Hands off! Protests were held at more than 1,200 locations across all 50 states by over 150 groups, including civil rights organisations, labour unions, LGBTQ advocates, veterans and election activists, reported the Associated Press.
According to the report, the rallies appeared to be peaceful, and there is news of immediate arrests.
The anti-Donald Trump protests started on Saturday, when thousands of protestors took to the streets of the United States. Amid this, a video is doing the rounds on social media, showing a protester in a Pok¨¦mon Pikachu costume. However, there is no information about the protester yet.
According to an HT report, a few days ago, a protester wearing a Pikachu costume was spotted in Turkey. The person was running from the riot police amid the protests over the arrest of opposition leader Ekrem Imamoglu.
Currently, the Donald Trump administration is facing strong opposition from critics from across the globe, who argue that the decisions and actions taken by the Trump administration are eroding the very principles of American democracy.
As soon as the video surfaced on social media, it started making the rounds on the internet. Some users on X (formerly called Twitter) said, "Protest $Pika Chu is back."
One questioned, "How did Pikachu get from Turkey to the US in such a short time?"
"Begging to be taken seriously," another wrote.
"Hey, he was arrested in Turkey recently."
"It seems our pikachu went there after T¨¹rkiye."
One jokingly said, "Nintendo¡¯s lawyers are gonna find that person faster than ICE"?
