Nevertheless.... it was a LIE.Â
I am honestly sorry that you can not understand people of all ages, backgrounds, color, etc., being able to come together and protest.
Many of them are as educated as you are. Â Most have jobs and voted. Â They are truly concerned about the "changes" that are about to happen. Â Â
Â
Fact is not everyone in the USA believes the way you do.  It does not make them less than.  I am amazed at those claiming to be good christians who so quickly call names and degrade those who feel differantly.  The numerous horse barns in TX, OK, etc., who have  used illegal mexican help for years.  Now they blame the illegals for every ill of the country.  No blame for the employer.  How about the illegals who have picked crops in this country for decades. Â
Buying products from Mexico and China is okay because it was legal? Â No personal responsability for making the choice to buy product made in the USA. Â The list goes on. Â Â
Fact is the popular vote and e.c. split this election.  Had it gone the other way I doubt seriously it would have been any less  frustrating to your side.

You are right it would have been equally frustrating just as it was when Obama won. The difference is the protests back then were peaceable. I remember the media being dumbfounded because they left the protest area cleaner than when they arrived. I think the difference was in the age of the protesters. They didn't come from the participation trophy generation. |

Location: In the Hills of Texas | I posted a lie and couldn't find at the time that it was a lie. I'm not blind and I've watched many of the other protests and I find them down right scary on one hand and ridiculous on the other.
I would like to hear about all these awful changes are going to be? Law and order? Fixing ObamaCare? Fixing our borders? Fixing our debt? Helping our veterans? Fixing the tax laws? Fixing the immigration problem?
The ones that should be worrying about fixing something is the Democratic party. They now want to put in a Muslim Socialist to be the leader of the DNC. They now think they need to lean even farther left. Now that is scary and terrifying at the same time.

Actually, I haven't seen the total results yet. There were a couple of states too close to call.... so I'd be interested to see the final count. Not trying to start anything, just genuinely interested. |

Location: Kansas | Karen, please don't defend people who come here illegally. When you come to the U.S. illegally you are plain and simple an invader. Take the time to do it right. I was at Kohl's today at the checkout and a Hispanic couple was trying to open an account so they could get the rather large discount that came with it. Neither could produce a driver's license so quickly grabbed a wallet and paid cash. So if they're involved in an automobile accident it's a given they will not have insurance and they will receive free medical if needed. Not the same for whoever they hit.
Did you know the White House is negotiating to bring two thousand refugees from Australia. They absolutely don't want them so are trying to send them here. My question is always if they don't want them why do we. Very likely they are criminals. By all means dump them into our population.
Also Google video from Dearborn MI and you will be stunned at what the Muslim population has done to this American city.

Actually there is no such thing as a spilt vote. While it might be interesting to keep tract of it means nothing on a national level. The popular vote ONLY counts in your individual state. Electors decide who is President. The protesters seem to have not read the Constitution or more likely don't care. There in lies the problem. |

There is a difference between having a difference of opinion and completely becoming unable to function bc you don't like aan outcome. I get they're upset but the fact they're rendered helpless and need pizza, hot chocolate, can't take tests, shut down colleges basically is RIDICULOUS. How the hell do they deal with a death, a break up or a REAL tragedy? That's the scary part to me their inability to freaking cope. This is our FUTURE?
Protest? These aren't protests! They're outright riots. They aren't helping their cause and their DESTROYING businesses of probably their fellow like minded party. And what's Obama saying, NOTHING!!! His smug ass is enjoying bc he doesn't give 2 effs about the American people who didn't vote for the continuation of HIS legacy!

Karen, I have news for you. We are a nation of laws. We have laws or we don't have a nation. They are supposed to everyone, including the Clinton Cartel, and non-citizens who come here illegally to take advantage of our country and expect rights and privileges that are supposed to be reserved for our citizens. It's just that simple.
I don't know why you brought up this "split vote" nonsense, but it's lame. Once again I'll remind you we are a nation of laws, and our law dictates that the electoral college is how we decide presidential elections in the USA. Trump will receive more electoral votes than JFK won in 1960 (306-303). It doesn't matter what the popular vote count ends up once all the absentee ballots have been counted. B!tching about any difference in the popular vote only serves to agitate the minions who are rioting and protesting.
Yes, if the shoe were on the other foot, I would be frustrated, but I'm not so stupid as to take to the streets and demonstrate if my candidate lost the election even while winning the popular vote.
Your party is an absolute mess. Obama's legacy won't be ObamaCare....it will be that he presided over the Democrat's ass kicking in two midterms and now this election. |

| jd&ez - 2016-11-11 4:14 PM It took Obama years to make changes. Now we have a president that know nothing about making policy or building consensus.
Obama will go down in history as the President that spent eight years in the White House and never passed a budget.
Talk about your great consensus builders! |

Yep Obamo made changes all right, he divided us big time and gave his ok to kill police men and for all thugs to be ok with breaking laws that suits them. He didnt make America better, he hurt America and made America a joke.. |

 I seriously doubt you would have seen riots across America. Â
Agreed.
I just don't understand what about the word ILLEGAL that the left does not understand. Were I a legal immigrant , having done my waiting time, spent my money, studied for the test, I would be beyond piffed that folks think that they can just walk across the border and get the same rights that I EARNED. I also think that folks who go through the process become more invested in this country and are more willing to assimilate in to our culture. I am not saying that they abandon their own, but they left their country of birth for a reason and came HERE for a reason so learn the language and don't try to force your old culture on to us.
While I am concerned about the Mexican border (and many of those folks are just traveling through Mexico from South America, so we are not talking just about Mexicans) and the effect they have on our health care systems and government handouts, I am way MORE concerned about the flood of refugees the current POTUS has brought it and how many more he will jam through before he turns over the office. How many possible terrorists are coming through? How many potential terrorists are their in that mix? Now compare that number to how many Christians got to come here with them.
If you haven't watched and middle to upper class neighborhood become completely replaced with Muslims...well suffice it to say, in this day and age, it is terrifying. Not only has Dearborn, Michigan become the biggest concentration of Muslims but in Hamtramck they petitioned to stop the ringing of church bells, as it offended them. Months later they forced through the call to prayer to be blasted on loudspeakers in the very same neighborhood. How is that equal and just?
If I were to emigrate to another country I would expect to learn the language and customs and not expect to force My ways on them.
Whatever happened to staying put and fighting for your own country? Aw heck, it is just plain easier and safer to go to the US and try to turn it in to the exact same mess they are fleeing.
On another note, I am flabbergasted and amused at the same time for all the fear these protesters are worried about. Gays are worried about losing their right to marry and Trump has already said that that is not an issue because it has already been legalized and faced the challenge at Supreme Court level, so let's move on to more important issues. Not sure about what women are supposed to fear. I am pretty sure that I don't have to worry about The Donald grabbing my a&& or saying something off color in my presence. If they want to say that it fosters the environment of similar attitudes being acceptable, I see a President that supports the law and if you break it you pay the price. In addition, what ever happen to the notion of personal responsibility? Oh yeah, it went out the window when "everybody gets a trophy " was ushered in.
They say that "they" do no feel represented, well I have not felt represented for decades now, so suck it up Buttercup, go home and get on with your life, the sky is not falling. Just because you are unhappy does not give you the right to assault others or destroy property. You have left the protest and entered in to a form of terrorism you bullies! What hypocrites!!!! |

| I find it highly ironic but sadly not surprising that the press, who ran wild when Donald Trump said he might not except the election results if he lost, are in huge support of the protesters now that Hillary lost. Another example of the liberal press, we need to drain the swamp with them too. |
