For the second consecutive night, on July 17, protesters gathered in front of the White House for a rally in response to President Donald Trump’s Helsinki summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The protesters were joined by Stormy Daniels’ lawyer Michael Avenatti and actress Alyssa Milano, both of whom delivered speeches condemning Trump’s relationship with Russia.
Trump faced trenchant criticism, even from within the Republican Party, over his decision to meet Putin and for his conduct at the summit. Trump failed to denounce alleged Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and criticized US intelligence agencies at the summit.
“I hold both countries responsible. I think that the United States has been foolish. I think that we’ve all been foolish,” said Trump during the press conference. Credit: Liza_Bek via Storyful
