Incredible Photos Show Massive Protest by DC Students at Trump International Hotel
Thousands upon thousands of schoolchildren descended on D.C. landmarks as well to vent their anger at the president-elect.

WASHINGTON, DC — President-elect Donald Trump has had his share of protests, but the school walkout staged by students in Maryland and D.C. on Tuesday may have been the biggest yet.
Images shared throughout social media depict huge crowds of students waving signs and chanting slogans against Trump, not just in front of the newly opened Trump International Hotel on Pennsylvania Avenue, but also at the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial.
Trump has clearly inspired a huge groundswell of anger in the D.C. area, which voted heavily for Hillary Clinton, due to his racially and sexually charged comments throughout his campaign.
