The Resistance (also known as the #Resistance) is an American
liberal political movement that protested the
presidency of
Donald Trump, starting in November 2016.[1][2][3][4] It later expanded to include not only
Democrats, but Independents and
Republicans who opposed Trump. Members have been described as prolific in their use of
Twitter, especially the "#Resist"
hashtag and, early on, #TheResistance.[5] Some
conservatives and Trump supporters have adopted the Resistance moniker to oppose President
Joe Biden.[citation needed]
