Are Anti-Trump Protests Losing Steam?

On Saturday, protesters gathered in cities across the United States, and around the world, to demand that President Trump release his tax returns, in an early test of the strength and staying power of the grassroots movement that has mobilized in opposition to the new administration.
The tax marches may be the biggest political demonstration to take place since the Women’s March in January. But they were never expected to match the record turnout of that event, which has been estimated to be the largest mass mobilization ever recorded in a single day in United States history.
High turnout for the Women’s March with which Donald Trump entered office, but it inevitably set a high bar against which future demonstrations will be compared.
