Washington_ Demonstrations in protest of Republican Donald Trump's victory in the US presidential election entered its second week, when thousands of students chanted phrases like "He's not my president" after dropping out of classes in different cities across the country, Radio Habana Cuba publishes.

The latest protests followed the appointment of conservative Stephen Bannon as its chief strategist, because of what Trump was criticized for considering that this would lead the white nationalist movement to the upper strata of the White House.

About 4,000 students from Los Angeles Unified School District left classes throughout the city in protest against the president-elect, who during his campaign promised to deport undocumented immigrants and build a wall between the United States and Mexico.

Also in Seattle, Public School officials said that about 5,000 students dropped out of classes in 20 elementary and high schools on Monday, about 10 percent of all district’s students.

Authorities in Portland, Oregon, Montgomery County, Maryland, and the San Francisco Bay Area said that hundreds of youths also demonstrated in those places.

Thousands of people have marched in cities from New York to Los Angeles in peaceful demonstrations following Trump's unexpected victory last Tuesday against Democrat Hillary Clinton.

Trump secured enough votes at the 538-member Electoral College to win the presidency, despite Clinton's passing him in the popular vote.
