Given that we in the United States live at the time of the Trump administration which threaten many Americans’ fundamental rights, values, and prestige around the world, there have been more mass protests than ever before. There’s the Women’s March, the March for Science, the March for Our Lives, and many more. Sometimes they may happen spontaneously or wherever Donald Trump may be like that mass demonstration in the UK during the summer. At any rate, you’ll find plenty of signs with clever sayings on them just to get to the point. A lot of these were made on cardboard with markers in block letters. Many of these have been featured on various sites like Buzzfeed or Pinterest. So for your reading pleasure, I give you a treasury of protest signs to entertain you on these dark days of Trump. Some of these may not be safe for work, by the way.
At least IKEA cabinets are much more useful.
Well, I could definitely say the same about the Trump cabinet. Though you have to assemble the IKEA cabinets yourself.
2. This woman gives no apologies.
Because she’s a woman who stands up for herself. From the Women’s March, by the way.
3. Some people don’t always know what they’re protesting about.
Yes, yes, “Down with this sort of thing.” From a protest in Britain, I think.
4. Well, I hope Donald Trump did Nazi this sign coming.
Sure, Donald Trump isn’t Hitler. But he doesn’t see anything wrong with hiring white nationalists at the White House.
5. Seems like these protestors don’t get on.
Either that, or they’re having too much fun with each other. Still, the signs are funny.
6. Apparently, she thinks pot solves everything.
You have to wonder whether she’s totally high right now. Cause I don’t think legalized marijuana will solve all our problems.
7. Someone wants to feed Donald Trump to the dogs.
Yes, feed Trump to the corgies. Since Queen Elizabeth II famously owns them.
8. Gandalf gives the Picard facepalm.
I’m sure Sir Patrick Stewart would get a kick out of this. Since they’re friends and have been on X-Men together.
9. On any cardboard sign, you can only write so much.
Yes, there’s so much to be upset about. And so little space to adress your grievances.

One wasn’t busy. One has a sign from the times. And one is mad as hell but is taking a deep breath and counting to 10.
11. Kids should be more worried about grades in school.
This is from the March for Our Lives protest. This arose after the Parkland shooting in February.

Apparently, he likes playing dystopian video games like Fortnite. Guess this is from the March for Our Lives.
14. So George Soros did pay protestors to be there.
Actually, I think this is a joke. Since George Soros has been a major focus of right-wing conspiracy theories, particularly on Fox News and InfoWars.
15. Bombing for peace solves nothing.
Yes, it’s basically like that. Mostly since violence only breeds more violence.
16. She was angry so she did embroidery.
After all, doing embroidery whas her way to relieve stress. As she inscribed on her sampler.
17. Go ahead, tell them how you really feel.
Well, of course we’re really not happy about this. Because Donald Trump is president and he’s a total disaster.

Because women are told to smile all the time. Even when we’re mad as hell and can’t take it anymore.

Wish I could tell Donald Trump to fuck off. Since he’s a complete monster.

These people are public employees protesting Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker. Becuase he tried to take away their collective bargaining rights.

Guess this has to pertain to the Middle East. Does it concern Israel and Palestine? I’m not sure.
23. Seems like the Star Trek and Star Wars rivalry is quite fierce.
This is from a Trekkie. Still, most sci-fi fans usually like both. Since both Star Wars and Star Trek are good in their own way.
24. This guy hates crowds. But hates Trump more.
Yes, crowds are terrible since they’re so noisy. But having Trump as president is even worse.
25. There’s only one orange thing Scottish people are okay with.
Guess this is a beer in Scotland. Still, the Scots really hate his guts. Condolences for those who live near his Scottish golf course.

This Brit took off work and hired a babysitter. All to call Trump a “wanker.”
28. I’m sure that’s an understatement.
Indeed, Donald Trump likes going golfing on the weekends. Though I don’t think he’s any good either.
29. Dear Queen, don’t give him the good cookies.
They refer cookies as “biscuits” in Britain. not exactly sure why. Still, Trump treated the Queen like shit during his UK visit.
30. Melania, if you want us to save you, show us a sign.
However, I think that Melania is actually complicit in all this. Since she’s just Trump’s trophy wife.
31. This tennis fan is missing Wimbledon for this.
Though I do like how she called Trump a “tangerine wankmaggot.” Brits are so great with insults.
32. I’m sure protests can be civil affairs.
I think this is from The Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear by Comedy Central in 2009. Nonetheless, this is hilarious.

I think these guys are from Anonymous. Since they’re wearing Guy Fawkes masks from V for Vendetta.
35. Beware, alt-right, for the witches are coming.
This is from a counter protest in Boston after Charlottesville. The sheer crowd size scared the white supremacists away.
36. When you don’t have science, you have no Death Star.
Indeed, this Stormtrooper is right. But is that a point you want to make? I mean it can blow up a planet.
37. As we can see, Trump is a prick with no wall.
Because Trump’s wall at the US-Mexican boder is a phenomenonally stupid idea. Also, Trump’s a complete prick.

Considering how orange Trump is, this is appropriate. Because his stan is cheeto color.

Since librarians don’t go out much. For they prefer books over people.

41. These women could’ve had brunch instead of turn out.
This is from the Women’s March. And yes, hell hath no fury like millions of women scorned.

Because the zombies will kill us all in the apocalypse. So it’s best we all stay out of cemeteries.

This is a pro-gay marriage sign. Yet, I’m sure Liza didn’t find out until after she married those guys.

Because gay isn’t a choice or a phase. And yes, old gay people do exist.

Then again, Deadpool might just be trolling Wolverine. Still, the sign is funny.

Don’t worry, they’ve translated it to English so you wouldn’t get scared. Sad how Islamophobia infects the nation.
49. Guess this a sign of what’s to come.
Well, most of us knew that a Trump presidency was bad news. But this woman went with a reusable sign since she has a lot to protest about.
50. It’s always customary to have a sign at a protest.
Kind of a generic sign if you ask me. Not really original.
51. This guy must be a real Belieber.
Guess this was during a protest when Justin Bieber was popular. Apparently, he attracted a lot notoriety since.
52. Now’s not the time to be turned on right now.
Hope he wasn’t at a women’s march. Then again, better a women’s march than a Trump rally.
53. Get a load of this strong American bitch.
She does happen to be a dog. Though her bark is worse than her bite. Yet, she will bite that cheeto orange man in the White House.
54. These banksters on Wall Street need to go to jail.
I think this is from an Occupy protest. Nonetheless, the art is spot on.

This is from a Women’s March. But at least the sign gets straight to the point.

58. Protest signs accomplish nothing.
At least this person seems honest. Though this kind of cracks me up.
59. Someone seems rather scared.
This person is afraid of people with signs at rallies. Though the ones at Trump rallies are understandable.

That’s how you show them, kiddo. She’ll grow up to be a fine woman some day.
61. Don’t like gay marriage? Blame straight people.
Well, it has a valid point. It’s the straight people making gay babies. Since most gay people have straight parents.
62. Some guy’s keeping score in Trump’s golf game.
This is another British anti-Trump protestor. Though he decided to troll the Pussygrabber-in-chief in the most epic way possible.
63. Swamp creatures never drain the swamp.
I can agree with that. You should see the people in Trump’s cabinet.
64. Oh, God, Trump’s got the queen.
This is King Kong takeoff is brilliant. Though I’d exclude the cross of gold. I know the Religious Right backs him. But Trump never goes to church.

Melania may not love Trump. But she loves his money. So she’s not going anywhere.
66. When talking about Donald Trump’s crimes, it’s difficult where to begin.
Yes, I get that feeling all the time. Since Donald Trump is an all-around wretched human being with practically no redeeming qualities. Other than not being a cannibal or murderer.
67. Just let that case do the talking.
Indeed, that describes Trump so perfectly. Got to love the Brits.

Yeah, I think we took it too far with Trump. Since he’s totally not qualified for the job at all.
70. After all, there’s no marriage bans for assholes.

71. Seems to be a Daily Show fan to me.
Her comedy central is Fox News. Her news channel is Comedy Central.

I can get behind this one. Since corporations aren’t people and shouldn’t have the same rights either.

After all, unrestricted capitalism is how many of us got in this financial mess. Yet, no Wall Street banker has been jailed for causing the 2008 recession.
74. Don’t believe in government? Don’t run for office.
Yet, libertarians and Republicans don’t seem to listen. And that’s why we have men like Trump in the White House.

Uh, Medicare is socialized medicine. That’s why Democrats like me want Medicare for all.
76. There’s no excuse not to be civil at a protest.
Well, doesn’t hurt to disagree respectfully. Might be from Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear.

78. You should always try to see others’ perspectives.
Well, it always help to understand different points of view. Though sometimes, it can prove difficult.

Not sure if signage is the way to go. There’s always blogging though.

You have to hand that to them. Since gay unions don’t result in unintended pregnancies.

84. Don’t think a protest is a place for a gang bang.
Yet, he holds such sign in colorful letters. Guy must be mad.
85. Some people are so angry they’d go do something about it.

86. These people don’t know what they’re protesting about.
They seem to be there for the beer. Though I don’t think there is any.
87. Indeed, our country has a grave case of electile dysfunction.

88. Islamophobes assume the worst with Arabic script.
Don’t worry, it just says, “McDonald’s.” Nothing to fret about.

I’m sure anti-Trump Christians like me are all praying right now. Because we really can’t do much else.
97. Someone’s xenophobic.
Has a picture of Xenia, Warrior Princess. And I can see why this person might be afraid of her.
98. We should all pay our taxes.
Love the snake sign that says, “Slytherin.” Definitely says a lot about those who fly the “Don’t Tread on Me” flags.
99. We only get a certain amount of time.
Someone doesn’t have time for all this. Well, don’t we all?
100. Circus clown needs a job.
