Liberal film-maker Michael Moore made it to the fourth floor of Manhattan's Trump Tower in his bid to confront President-elect Trump and call on him to step down, before he was stopped by Secret Service guards.
Moore, who had been a vocal critic of Trump during the election, joined thousands of people in protesters in New York on Saturday morning, before he managed to get inside Trump Tower.
After making his way into the Donald's Central Park skyscraper, Moore attempted to get to Trump's office.

The award-winning film-maker managed to scale Trump's famous escalator, however he was stopped from going any further by security guards on the fourth floor.
Moore was then escorted back down to the lobby, however before he left he wrote a note to Trump.
'Mr. Trump. I’m here. I want to talk to you,' the note read.
Moore then left the building and tweeted: 'I'm in the middle of thousands -tens of thousands?- of American voters outside Trump Tower demanding he step aside. He got the least votes.

Thousands of protesters march up Fifth Avenue to Trump Tower to protest against President-elect Donald Trump, in Manhattan
About 2,000 protesters have been marching along Fifth Avenue in Manhattan shouting "not my president" and other slogans.
The protesters rallied at New York's Union Square on Saturday before picking up steam and taking their cause into the street and toward Trump Tower.
Fifth Avenue was crowded with protesters for blocks. Police lined both sides, following along on foot and on motorcycle, but the group remained peaceful.
There were protests in other parts of the country as well, with the largest taking place in Los Angeles, where several thousands marched.

Protesters were denouncing his campaign pledge to deport people who entered the US illegally and his crude comments about women.
Cheers, chants and flag-waving mark Saturday's procession, which stretched for blocks through the Civic Center.
No arrests were made even though the train of demonstrators occasionally snarled traffic.
The mood seemed enthusiastic rather than angry. There are no reports of vandalism or fire-setting, which have marred previous demonstrations around the nation.
Earlier in the day, Trump's campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway was seen at Trump Tower in New York.
She spoke briefly with reporters before taking an elevator to the President-elect's office.

Moore came under fire last month for calling Trump supporters 'legal terrorists' in an interview with Rolling Stone.
In the interview, he said Trump would 'blow up the system' and his voters would 'participate in the detonation'.
Moore also compared Trump to a pedophile, saying voters had to protect America from the GOP nominee the way children should be protected from molesters.
Earlier this year the film-maker created headlines by predicting Trump's election win.
