Shropshirestar – As Donald Trump returns to New York City for the first time since becoming president, he can expect to be greeted by not only protests, but unfavourable posters plastered throughout his home state.
The city has been decorated with anti-Trump stickers and New York resident Tim Olmstead has been documenting them all on his Instagram page ‘Resistrump‘ for the past two months.
Having always been a fan of street art and graffiti, Tim – a fundraiser for a non-profit called Food & Water Watch and avid photographer – noticed a surprising number of scrawls and posters around the city soon after Trump’s inauguration in January.
The 32-year-old said: “One day I was walking home and I noticed that someone had scribbled ‘Fuck Trump’ on the Manhattan Bridge. I decided to keep track of how much anti-Trump stuff I saw on my walk home and it was a lot… I don’t remember how many exactly, but enough that I was surprised by it.
“I was also surprised by the creativity of some of the stickers and posters. Once I had a critical mass I just started putting them up”.
