Donald Trump has attacked Barack Obama's US election victory on Twitter, calling it a "travesty" and a "disgusting injustice".

The tycoon, who has made frequent interventions in the election, criticising the president and calling on him to release his college records, wrote: "We can't let this happen" and suggested a march on Washington.

We can't let this happen. We should march on Washington and stop this travesty. Our nation is totally divided! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 7, 2012

He went on:

This election is a total sham and a travesty. We are not a democracy! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 7, 2012

and continued to tweet that the country was in "serious and unprecedented trouble … like never before".

He criticised the electoral college system, tweeting:

The electoral college is a disaster for a democracy. — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 7, 2012

Trump suggested the House of Representatives, which is still controlled by the Republican party, should "hold our country together", writing:

Hopefully the House of Representatives can hold our country together for four more years...stay strong and never give up! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 7, 2012

He also suggested representatives "shouldn't give anything to Obama unless he terminates Obamacare".
