Roughly 2,600 demonstrations took place in all 50 states, with massive events in cities including Washington, New York, Chicago and Los Angeles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trump dismissed the significance of the protests on Sunday and suggested they were backed by wealthy Democratic donors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI think it\u2019s a joke,\u201d Trump told reporters, when asked Sunday about the \u201cNo Kings\u201d protests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI looked at the people \u2014 they\u2019re not representative of this country.

When you look at those people, those are not representative of the people of our country,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trump, in an interview taped ahead of the protests, also rejected the idea that he was acting like a monarch, saying, \u201cThey\u2019re referring to me as a king.
