Protests ‘very unfair’, tweets Trump

As protests against Donald Trump roll on to the second day in different US cities, the president-elect has called them ‘very unfair’.

"Just had a very open and successful presidential election. Now professional protesters, incited by the media, are protesting. Very unfair!" he tweeted on Friday. 

Demonstrators have taken to the streets in several US cities after the billionaire businessman was elected as the next US president on Wednesday.

On the East Coast, protests took place in Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York, while on the West Coast demonstrators rallied in Los Angeles, San Francisco and Oakland in California, and Portland, Oregon.
