Anti-Trump 'Resistance Forum' in King of Prussia Draws Hundreds

Led by Democratic State Sen. Daylin Leach, the Resistance Forum in King of Prussia drew a crowd of hundreds on Wednesday protesting the nation's new President Trump.

The forum at Upper Merion Middle School on Keebler Road addressed key progressive issues that organizers say they are trying to protect from the new president's agenda.

"Senator Daylin Leach has fought for progress his entire life. Like many liberals, he is worried that Trump and his allies will destroy much of what we have accomplished," his office said. "In the days since Trump was elected, an overwhelming number of people have approached Senator Leach asking how we can protect the progress we’ve made and move forward together."

The event was free and focused on topics like civil rights, women’s health, the war on drugs, criminal justice reform, fair wages, and firearm safety, among others.

Trump was inaugurated as the 45th President of the United States on Friday morning.
