    Um, no, of course not. The people are saying they don't want a racist for President. So why would they protest if he lost. Silly question

    If it's not broken, fix it until it is. Everything makes sense in someone's mind. Ya can't fix stupid.

      Oh really? Let's try this: suppose he lost. Would people be protesting him? Obviously not. But Trump would still have been Trump.

            Obviously not. If they were, there would be just as much reason to protest regardless of whether he won or not.

              People across the US are protesting in response to Trump's election. Some folks are decrying the protests and telling the protesters to "get over it already. Trump won" What these folks fail to realize is that they're not protesting Trump because he won, but because of who he is. He is clearly divisive. He has made disparaging comments towards blacks, latinos, women, jews... to name a few. Now, he appoints Steve Bannon to his inncer circle. For those of you who don't know Bannon ran a Breitbart [^] which has published some pretty racist stuff. If you haven't taken the time to look it up - do so. So this appointment clearly shows that either Trump doesn't understand why half the country doesn't like him - or he doesn't care. He talks about being president for all the people, then makes decisions that alienates half of them. Not off to a good start.

              Debunking Trump being racist myths: Trump opposed mass immigration from third-world nations for practical reasons, not racial reasons. Everyone, including Trump, who takes that stance ends up labelled as a racist, even when it's not true. The Mexican government also opposes mass immigration from other third-world nations for practical reasons, and they mass-deport millions, too. Trump is highly pro-Israel and pro-African American prosperity. He has a Jewish son-in-law, half-Jewish grandchildren, and many Jewish close friends. He also received endorsements from leaders in the African American community, including Martin Luther King Jr.'s neice, Alveda King (he has real, concrete plans to free the African American communities from poverty). The riots occur because paid, professional protestors incitied the riots. Part of the inciting includes from lies and myths about Trump. As responsible citizens, we should oppose both the lies and the employment of paid protesters.

                  You're not making sense mate. You're saying that people are not protesting that Trump won but who he is. Then you admit that they wouldn't protest if he hadn't won. That doesn't add up. Trump would still be who he is if he hadn't won. That reason still exists in the time line where he lost, but they wouldn't protest there, so it cannot be the reason.

                    Not sure why this is a difficult concept.. Why would someone protest a racist president if is LOST? had he lost, he would not become president - so there's no reason to protest. People are not upset that the electoral process or the fair outcome of the elections. They're upset that someone so blatantly racist got elected.

II made the point "So this appointment clearly shows that either Trump doesn't understand why half the country doesn't like him - or he doesn't care."

Not that he beat Hillary, but they his dislike his racist character. And he taps a racist like Bannon in spite of that. You can't say on one hand "I want to be President for ALL the people", then take action that alienates half the people. I stand by my statement. And ya, sure... Soros is paying hundreds of thousands of people across the county to riot.

                      So, which candidate do you think would have had 100% approval? And does this continue for each and every decision he's going to make?

                            Trump needs to put a few key republicans inn power in his cabinet else he wont get broad Republican support and wont get any bill through the houses. Whether or not he chooses to listen to Bannon is another thing. Get the picture? Trump is no fool, seriously, he is a very clever player, he knows how to get what he wants, knows how to use people.

                                      People across the US are protesting in response to Trump's election. Some folks are decrying the protests and telling the protesters to "get over it already. Trump won" What these folks fail to realize is that they're not protesting Trump because he won, but because of who he is. He is clearly divisive. He has made disparaging comments towards blacks, latinos, women, jews... to name a few. Now, he appoints Steve Bannon to his inncer circle. For those of you who don't know Bannon ran a Breitbart [^] which has published some pretty racist stuff. If you haven't taken the time to look it up - do so. So this appointment clearly shows that either Trump doesn't understand why half the country doesn't like him - or he doesn't care. He talks about being president for all the people, then makes decisions that alienates half of them. Not off to a good start.

                                      If it's not broken, fix it until it is. Everything makes sense in someone's mind. Ya can't fix stupid.

                                      Wikileaks and the republican party became a tool of the Russians when they endeavored to get Donald Trump elected. The people screaming for Hillary to be in prison should watch themselves, as many are guilty either wittingly or unwittingly of posting Russian propaganda, and therefore engaging in electronic warfare against the people of the United States of America.

                                        Donald Trump's vile gloating about sexual assault, his clandestine connections to Putin's regime of terror, and his failure to win the popular vote have disqualified him from the presidency. The Electoral College will elect Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19.

                                          So is that why WikiLeaks posted Trumps tax return? Buy the way I would rather have a person who talks to someone rather that a person who sells uranium to that person (an has ties to them also).
