A protester in London dressed like President Donald Trump in a gorilla costume behind bars on July 13 during the president’s visit to the UK.
Tens of thousands of protesters took to the streets during the second day of Trump’s visit, during which he had tea with Queen Elizabeth II at Windsor Castle.
This video shows the protester who dressed like Trump in a gorilla costume as he posed for pictures from the cage.
This idea mimics a stunt from August 2016 when the Kremlin paid a Trump supporter to build a cage and dress as Hillary Clinton. This was part of a scheme run by the Internet Research Agency from St Petersburg, Russia, to undermine the American political system, according to CNN.
The London protests included organized marches and “Trump baby,” a giant balloon that mimicked Trump as a screaming orange baby.
Trump met with Prime Minister Theresa May earlier during his trip for talks on trade, Brexit and NATO, according to local news reports. The president was expected to stay the weekend in Scotland at his Turnberry golf property. Credit: Dub Chain via Storyful
A filmer captured a Philadelphia police officer striking at a protester with a baton during a rally against family separations on June 19.
Hundreds of people protesting against family separations gathered outside the Rittenhouse Hotel where Vice President Mike Pence was speaking, according to news reports.
“The incident occurred at a peaceful protest during which Americans gathered to protest family separations at the border and in detention centers,” the filmer Daisy Confoy said. “Police officers became violent when protesters linked arms to prevent an unmarked security car from moving through the middle of the crowd.”
“In the video, one police officer is seen repeatedly beating a protester, who is out of the frame but clearly on the ground, with his baton,” Confoy said.
The video was taken near Rittenhouse Square at 19th and Walnut at approximately 7:00 p.m.
