Union. Early today starts right now. Good thursday morning. Here we are with many in the country having time to let it sink in, but some people are having more trouble with it than not. Less than 24 hours after donald trump was elected, the 45th president of the united states, americans are making their voices we heard in major cities across the country. Its mostly quiet. Protests have united from coasttocoast against trumps when with thousands taking to the streets in boston, seat chicago and right here in new york city. They marched, blocked traffic, chanted and protested at the top of their lungs. Reporter hi, guy, we are standing on 5th avenue in midtown, manhattan, the shopping trick, prada, luis vuitton, thousands of new yorkers headed in the southern part of manhattan, right outside the secret service said this will be a security issue. Tonight is the first really demonstration of that. This is where donald trump is currently living, where his Campaign Offices were, where tonight they were holding transition meetings. Thousands saying Hillary Clinton won the popular vote, chanting, we reject the president elect. It was spontaneous over social media, people talking about it at work, they have said they came together. They shut down 57th street, shut its not the only city from philadelphia, chicago, portland, new mexico, arizona, here in manhattan where donald trump is tonight, this is ground zero for the 1st. Back to you, guys. Protests were also big on social media. One new york subway stop was riddled with hundreds of postits lining the wall with new yorkers offering sympathy. Result in protests, silent or otherwise, millions celebrated trumps stunning win. They asked House Speaker paul ryan, look ahead to passing their own agenda. Key among them, their repeal of the obamacaring a, while an emotional Hillary Clinton told trump story e supporters, trump deserved a chance to lead. I want you to know that nothing has made me to be your champion. Donald trump is going to be our president. We owe him an open mind and the chance to lead. This loss hurts, but please never stop believing that fighting for whats right is worth it. Now, president obama also pledged a smooth and peaceful transition of power. Our democracy and over the next few months, we are going to show that to the world. So i have instructed by team to follow the example that president bushs team set eight years ago and work as hard as we can to make sure this is a Successful Transition for the president elect. But because we are now all rooting for a success in uniting and leading the country. However, transition wasnt carried through all of washington. Bernie sanders issued a biting statement which read, in part, quote, donald trump tapped into the anger of a declining middle class that is sick and tired of establishment economic, establishment politics and the establishment media. To that degree that mr. Trump is serious about pursuing policies that improve the lives of working families in this country, i and other progressives are prepared to and xenophobic policies, we will vigorously oppose him. Trump met with transport elect pence and they will meet with House Speaker paul ryan to begin working on their republican agenda. The mexican president also said he plans to meet with trump during the transition period. We now have word that trump will soon begin to top security briefings as president obama. As this continues to settle the most divisive president ial election, we are getting new information on just who came out to vote. In this president ial election, an astonishing 46. 9 of eligible voters did not vote. Well, this marks the second time has lost the popular vote but won the election.
