President Trump and the GOP can't seem to escape Handmaid's Tale protestors -- not even halfway around the globe.

During his visit to Warsaw, Poland to meet with world leaders ahead of the G20 summit, Trump was met by a group of vocal protestors in long red robes and white hoods, a nod to Margaret Atwood's 1985 dystopian novel.

The Polish Handmaids met in Krasinskich Square, where some of Trump's supporters had gathered to greet him.

They were joined by a large group of plain-clothed protestors, with signs saying "Dumb Trump," and "Trump Precz" which roughly translates to "Trump Not Welcome!"

If that was not enough, Trump was also greeted with a special welcome on a Warsaw building, in reference to his decision to pull the U.S. out of the Paris Climate Agreement:

This is not the first time Trump (and other Republican legislators) have been met with this form of protest from the resistance.

The Handmaids have become a common sight over the past few months, protesting everywhere from Ohio to the Capitol.
