Thousands of people are protesting in several cities across the United States over Donald Trump's surprise victory in the presidential election.

Demonstrators have been chanting and holding up banners saying 'Not Our President' with others burning the American flag.

They've also been targeting the businessman's hotels in Chicago, and New York - where activist and film maker Michael Moore compared the election result to BREXIT:

The Trump campaign is yet to respond to the protests. In his victory speech, the Republican said he would be president for all Americans, adding: "It is time for us to come together as one united people".

These people are at Trump Tower in New York:
