More than half a million people took to the streets in Washington DC to protest against President Donald Trump, with more than two million more demonstrating around the world.

Washington DC, Chicago, Boston and Philadelphia were among the first cities in America to kick off the Women's Marches one day after Trump's inauguration.

A District of Columbia official said there will be no formal march led from the protest stage near the Capitol in DC because the route is filled with hundreds of thousands of protesters who are physically unable to move.

Fighting for their rights! Madonna and Fran Drescher also showed their support and attended the Women's March 

The crowd, estimated by the official as more than 500,000 people, is still expected to move toward the Ellipse, an area of the National Mall in front of the White House.

Organizers told DailyMail.com: 'We are marching. We are marching straight ahead toward the Washington monument to the Ellipse of the White House.' 

The sight in DC was in stark contrast to the crowd that watched Trump take the oath of office - the National Mall was filled to brim on Saturday with women sporting p***yhats.
