唐纳德·特朗普准备周一抵达芝加哥，作为总统首次访问风城，这位美国领导人应该为寒冷的接待做好准备。预计抗议者将全力支持此次访问，而主要城市领导人正计划通过缺席当天的活动传达自己的信息。

多年来，特朗普一直抱怨芝加哥市，此前他的一次集会在2016年选举前因抗议者和当时的总统候选人支持者之间的冲突而被关闭。

自那次从未有过的集会以来，总统抓住了许多机会抨击芝加哥，称之为“灾难”，并威胁说，如果芝加哥不采取更多措施打击枪支暴力，他将“派出联邦调查局”。

这位美国领导人一再指出，芝加哥的枪支暴力是反对枪支管制改革的一种方式，此外，他还试图指责该市领导层在犯罪问题上不够强硬。

抗议者计划周一公开反对这位美国领导人的言论，示威活动计划在芝加哥特朗普国际酒店大楼外举行，预计这位美国领导人将在那里举行竞选筹款活动。

不可分割的芝加哥组织了一次这样的示威，预计将有1000多人参加根据脸书的一个事件页面。

与此同时，随着抗议者的声音被听到，主要城市领导人计划保持沉默，大声疾呼，芝加哥市长洛里·莱特富特拒绝在访问期间会见总统，据美联社报道。

芝加哥警察局长埃迪·约翰逊也将缺席特朗普预计在国际警察局长协会会议上发表的演讲。

约翰逊已经表明了自己的立场，周日告诉美国广播公司7台出于对芝加哥“作为一个城市的核心价值观”的尊重，他将抵制这次活动

“我必须考虑到，不仅仅是我个人的感受，还有我们作为一个城市的核心价值观，”他说。“没有信任，我们什么都不是，我们的一些社区处于包围之中。这与我们城市的核心价值观和我的个人价值观不一致。”

当然，莱特福特和约翰逊并不是唯一对特朗普冷淡的人。反暴力活动家和当地牧师迈克尔·普法莱格告诉记者卫报 特朗普在芝加哥“不受欢迎”。

“他在这里不受欢迎，”南边圣萨比纳教堂的牧师普莱格说。“他除了妖魔化我们之外，没有做任何事情来帮助我们芝加哥，我们不值得这样做。”

普勒格呼吁特朗普访问芝加哥的南部或西部，那里一直在与枪支暴力作斗争。他说:“他让芝加哥的问题看起来好像是芝加哥人……而不是我们都有份。”

阿图罗·戈麦斯参加了2017年2月20日伊利诺伊州芝加哥特朗普大厦附近的总统日抗议活动。反特朗普抗议活动计划于2019年10月29日星期一在芝加哥再次举行，预计抗议者将集会反对这位美国领导人首次以总统身份访问该市。
 

TRUMP'S CHICAGO VISIT WILL BE MET WITH PROTESTS AND SNUBS FROM MAYOR, POLICE CHIEF AND RELIGIOUS LEADERS: 'HE'S NOT WELCOME HERE'

As Donald Trump prepares to land in Chicago for his first visit to the Windy City as president on Monday, the U.S. leader should brace for a chilly reception. Protesters are expected to be out in full force for the visit, while key city leaders are planning to send their own message through their absence from the day's events.

For years now, Trump has railed against the city of Chicago after one of his rallies was shut down in the lead up to the 2016 election due to clashes between protesters and the then-presidential candidate's supporters.

Since the rally that never was, the president has taken many opportunities to bash Chicago, branding it a "disaster" and threatening to "send in the Feds" if the city didn't do more to crack down on gun violence.

The U.S. leader has repeatedly pointed to gun violence in Chicago as a way to argue against gun control reform, in addition to seeking to blame the city's leadership for failing to be tough enough on crime.

Protesters plan to make their opposition to the U.S. leader's comments known on Monday, with demonstrations planned just outside the Trump International Hotel & Tower in Chicago, where the U.S. leader is expected to hold a campaign fundraiser.

One such demonstration, organized by Indivisible Chicago, has more than 1,000 people expected to attend according to a Facebook event page.

Meanwhile, as protesters make their voices heard, key city leaders plan to speak volumes with their silence, with Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot refusing to meet with the president during the visit, according to The Associated Press.

The city's top cop, Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson will also be notably absent during a speech Trump is expected to deliver at the International Association of Chiefs of Police conference.

Johnson has made his stance clear, telling ABC 7 on Sunday that he will be boycotting the event out of respect for Chicago's "core values as a city."

"I have to take into account, not just my personal feelings about it, but our core values as a city," he said. "We are nothing without trust and with some of our communities under siege. It just doesn't line up with our city's core values along with my personal values."

Of course, Lightfoot and Johnson are not the only ones who will be giving Trump the cold shoulder. Anti-violence activist and local pastor Michael Pfleger told The Guardian that Trump is "not welcome" in Chicago.

"He's not welcome here," said Pfleger, a pastor at St. Sabina church on the south side. "He has done nothing at all to help us in Chicago except demonize us, and we don't deserve it."

Calling on Trump to visit either the south or west sides of Chicago, which have struggled with gun violence, Pfleger said: "He makes it look as though the problem with Chicago are people in Chicago…rather than that we all have a piece in this pie."
