People Gather outside White House in Second Night of Protests against Trump after Helsinki (+Video)

THERAN (Tasnim) - People gathered outside the White House in DC to greet the US President Donald Trump by yelling "traitor" as he returned from his summit with Russia's Vladimir Putin in Helsinki, Finland, on Monday.

A video posted on Facebook shows hundreds of protesters packed into Lafayette Square in Washington DC on Tuesday, for a second day of protests following US President Donald Trump's meeting with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin in Helsinki.

Left-wing groups in Washington sought to confront the President for what they deemed an act of treason following Trump's rebuff of the American intelligence community in favor of Putin's word.

It is time to make America "independent, respected and America again," Stormy Daniels lawyer Michael Avenatti said, in the protest alongside former Hillary Clinton advisor Philippe Reines and actress Alyssa Milano.
