    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.

    You're expecting an emotional statement to hold up to a logical analysis. Silly you.

    There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

      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.

        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.

        Just like Obama did. I guess he's off to the same start Obama was. You should be thrilled.

          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).

                      People were rioting BEFORE Trump selected Bannon, so your claim is unjustified. They're rioting because Soros is paying them to do so.

                            So, regardless of choice, some people would be 'alienated', since they would not agree with the choice made. Implies that no one could ever become president of 'all Americans'. I don't understand the argument, obviously.

                              Every politician says they want to be for "all Americans", knowing full well that it's impossible. The trick, for the winner, is figuring out how tolerant the dissenters will be. In Trumps case, he was so blatantly racist and misogynistic (among other things) during the campaign that he made it impossible for some dissenters to be accepting of him at all.

                                I didn't know they'd have to 'accept' him. Since when is that an issue? And why did you guys accept Bush jr, if you could simply 'not accept' him?

                                  If America survived 4 mandates of Bush family it can survive one or two of Trumps'.

                                    And Obama is a model of civility? His policies have angered people, too, but I don't recall them rioting.

                                    Did Obama ever appoint anyone to the cabinet that wrote articles encouraging racism and sexism?

                                    Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet. The interesting thing about software is it can not reproduce, until it can.

                                      Three, actually. Which is too bad, as George H.W. Bush was one of the best President's we've ever had. Pragmatic, smart, centrist, and flexible. That flexibility is why he lost re-election, the base was mad after reading his lips.

                                        Genetic is such a bitch... always jumping generations fully random. At least they got both superlatives in the family... one of the best, and one of the worst.

                                          Can't really argue there. I suspect every family has a "that guy", though.
