Yes, sitting up at three in the morning ranting on twitter about someone's sex tapes because someone said something mean to you at a debate is a great example of mental stability. And if Trump's long, long history of extreme racism hasn't penetrated your psyche by this point there's nothing anyone is going to be able to say that would convince you otherwise. By the way, a majority of Americans agrees with me that he's racist.

Regardless of what you think though, these people certainly believe he is an unstable racist and they can point to plenty of evidence to back it up. That seems like a good reason to protest, no?


Can you provide something that shows Trump is racist?

No one is stopping them


I haven't seen a "can't do that" yet. Of course they can, but the main objection which has any potential repercussions is behaviors which do harm. "Let them protest it's their right" does not extend to violence or destruction, something that outright protest supporters seem to be missing.

I can't wait for the people who voted for Trump to start protesting. Your demagogue just elected the establishment for his cabinet.

I always wanted to use this...

Essentially. Idiots every single one of you.

Is this what passes for evidence in your mind?
My parents would buy into that one completely. The confirmation bias shown among religious people is just mind boggling. My parents have religion only in lieu of bona fide salvation and neither can pass the biblical test of Christianity found in 1 John 4:1-2. God tells people to use critical thinking skills in Hosea 4:6 but they refuse to which is why they've ended up where they are.

Big religion wants you to reject academics and listen to them exclusively and only accept their interpretation of the world which is twisted at best. Big religion is perhaps one of the greatest proximate causes of the problems today but they are so blind to themselves that they cannot see things for what they actually are.

Yes the riots, burning of police cars, lynchings in effigy and violent targeting of Trump voters is getting a great start here in America. Trump voters knew it was coming, so no surprises.

What action has Trump taken as President to... oh, wait, he hasn't yet.
These protestors are assaulting the very notion of election, of peaceful transfer of power.
Excuse me but Trump insinuated if he lost he wouldn't concede. So much for respecting the balance of power.

Looks like a bunch of spoiled brats being told 'no" for the first time in their life. I think this election is giving some people a healthy dose of reality and that's a damn good thing.
lol, and let me guess, you voted for the narcissistic, petulant man-child who wouldn't accept the outcome of the election unless he won. Oh irony...

He said a Mexican judge shouldn't rule on his case because he was inherently biased by being a Mexican. In the words of Paul Ryan that's a 'textbook racist comment'. Please don't try the 'Mexican is a nationality, not a race' thing either. In addition, his actions in regards to the Central Park Five were both incredibly racist and morally bankrupt. (seriously, read into that, it will make your skin crawl) Finally, the Trump organization has been repeatedly sued by the federal government for racist housing policies.

So he says racist things, takes racist actions, and the business he runs has been repeatedly sanctioned for racism. I mean how much more do you need to know the guy is a racist?

Where are they rioting or looting? As for the protests, they are simply exercising their first amendment right to protest. If you didn't notice, a man was elected to the presidency while basically trashing entire groups of Americans.

1st A you said? Just simply protest, eh? No rioting right?

In Seattle, about 100 protesters gathered in the Capitol Hill neighborhood, blocked roads and set a trash bin on fire, according to The Associated Press.

The protests were mostly peaceful, except for splinter groups that vandalized the city's downtown area, setting objects on fire and breaking windows, according to the the Oakland P.D.'s public information officer, Johnna Watson.

The Oakland Police Department made 30 arrests and handed out 11 citations during the protest, on charges of assault on an officer, vandalism, unlawful assembly, failure to disperse, and possession of a firearm.

Who knows? Seriously. What he said and what he does when he actually gets there will most likely be two different things. In short, he'll act like a politician.

Doesn't Trumps plan involve a large tax cut (primarily for the rich) and dramatic spending increases? I find it laughable that candidates can tell voters directly to their face and also on paper that they are going to give even more handouts to the oligarchy and the voters lap it up like a dog eating it's own vomit. Six trillion given back to the 1%ers with no source to replace the lost revenue.... noice!

I have utterly no doubt whatsoever that all changes Donald Trump make will benefit him and the 1%ers directly. His self-worth is entirely wrapped up around his net worth. He has made this blindingly obvious throughout his entire life.

I so love seeing the smug showing their anger

Oh, the lib tears and butthurt, so wonderful. The smug know it alls who love to thumb their noses at others, proven completely and totally wrong. The whiney petulant lefty children who have never been forced to hear something they didn't like are now protesting in the streets against a president that hasn't even taken office yet. Awesome! What a great couple of days it's been!

The protest is currently the losers who are in a high majority support the 1st amendment and don't support the abuse of the 2nd amendment. The thing to watch out for is Trump supporters rising up after they realized they dun goofed up. Which have a large majority of those that support the 2nd amendment and will actively abuse that right.

You whoever you are elected a demagogue. He played with your fear, uncertainty, and doubt to win. He lied and is bringing in the ultra-right neo-conservative Russian-allied establishment into his cabinet. His agenda is about stratification which is about keeping the rich, even more rich. While, the poor and barely getting by middle class, more diverse and weak.

By exercising their 1A rights to peacefully assemble? Seriously? Wow, just wow...

As usual you drop an ignorant message, followed by a ". . . "

They aren't all peaceful. Fights, shootings, destruction of property, and actual calls for violence and death is what is going on as well. But nevermind the facts, same as usual for you.

Just another downside of a Trump presidency.

Beyond protesting Trump, the far left nitwits will ALL OF A SUDDEN be out in the streets pretending to give a shit about wars, and oil and all that bullshit again. You know, all the stuff that for 8 years wasn't even a blip on their radar.

I'm more interested in how people can NOT see, after so many months of the presidential election race, that Trump is racist.

As far as the OP: I'm sorry, but one speech (Trumps acceptance speech) does not undo ALL of the hateful rhetoric, innuendo, racist, misogynistic, lies, and bullying that Trump is responsible for. People are upset that he won, end of story.

I for one am looking forward to conservatives forgetting they are against deficits.

Calm down. Biggest objections to Trump was He doesn't do what he promises, He has no plan to implement, He takes all side of issues, He promised grandiose things and rolls back after commitment. We complained that we won't know what he will do and we still don't. My greatest hope is he is an Orange Lincoln. He is Schroedinger's President.

We thought Obama would be much more effective than he was. We gave up on Income Equality and focused on Health care for Hobos. Now we focused on Bathroom Inequality for .0001% of population. We need loftier goals.


I feel much more comfortable being an outlaw than trying to explain the Bailout of Banks instead of homeowners.

Beware the Constitutional Convention. It will start out removing Electoral College but will end up who knows where.
