    Who do these millenials think they are protesting Trump being elected President?

    CreamCaramel, you're right and for jumping to that conclusion I do apologize.  For the past few days all the outcry I've seen in the media or online, and generally any comments with a tone such a yours had, has been from a "liberal" type...that was my mistake.

    But in keeping with the issue I still don't believe Trump's election had anything to do racism, sexism, bigotry, or any kind of general hatred.  It's about how these people have been treated.  For years they have been mocked, belittled, and generally treated with sheer contempt by people who feel they are morally superior (aka usually the liberal elite types).  Even in your response to me, the comments you make about "manipulating angry people out in the sticks" continues to play into this.

    If you can remove the "M.exican r.apist", "build a wall", "ban all M.uslims", and "grab them by the p.ussy" comments from your mind, that have repeatedly been played on blast like a broken record from the mainstream media in an attempt to demonize the man, I think you would find that he won the election because he actually talked about the issues that were important to people and resonated with them instead of the usual morally high-horsed agenda that gets pushed by the media, and celebrity/elite types.

    I think one of the most sensible comments I've heard actually came from Ann Coulter of all people (and I usually thin she's a clown), but she said "none of these people want to take him seriously, but they want to take him literally."

    We actually agree on a lot of things. The Democratic Party had no inspirational message and only tried to appeal to identity politics instead of class anxiety. Their promotion of celebrities as a band-aid for their terrible campaign was tone deaf. Trump spoke to the economic anxieties of people and that is why he won. The fact that a lot of the Democratic Party elites are still blaming Comey instead of themselves says a lot about them. 

    Racism, sexism, and nationalism were used to appeal to certain swaths of the population, though. I hope you can agree with that at least. I just hope for a future without those tactics.

    The protesters anger should be directed at the 46.5% of the possible electorate who simply didn't get off their duffers to vote in the election. The outcome might or might not have been different-but with everyone voting-no one would have a reason to complain after the fact.

    I DON'T. a LOT of people have paid into Social Security their whole working life. I just do NOT want to see it go into a jackpot on Wall Street. hopefully Trump and the Republicans know that IF they screw with Social Security AND/OR Medicare, they will be OUT on their collective BUTTS the next election

    they are now portioning the electoral college to vote for Clinton.

    reality they are correct the electoral college members can vote for anyone and do not have to adhere to the will of the states.. but I doubt the party faithful will abandon their party and obligations to the citizens of their perspective states to in turn hand the election to Hillary....

    The markets have reacted well to Trump's victory, I think his reign will be great for your economy.

    For all you simple minded bigoted trump suppporting idiots that are criticizing these protests -- you do realize that our now president elect was literally actively calling for the exact same thing a couple of months ago when he kept calling the election rigged. In case you are not smart enough to understand the message - he was setting up for extreme protests from the republicans.

    So please understand that the protests were going to happen either way. After all he was publically calling for it.

    Funny that you're attempting to rationalize these violent protests.  

    Protest all you want, but there's no reason to destroy your community.  Stupid Liberals  .

    The majority of these morons didn't even vote.

    "He's already starting to renege on his campaign promises"...well I thought this would be a good thing for you wouldn't it.  It's a good thing he's not going to build a wall, right?  Anyone who thought he was serious about that (on either side of the political spectrum) needs to have their head examined.  But keep crying about it, and saying "I told you so"...the hypocrisy and outcry from the left never ceases to astound me.  I guess you can never please a liberal.

    I had a feeling Trump would win...I bet on it, and I'm glad he did!  I'm a Canadian so maybe it was more easy to see from arms length but I didn't think this way because I'm secretly racist, or misogynistic...I don't hate anyone.  I thought this way because I'm logical, rationale, and objective.  In the aftermath of this election I've never seen so much mischaracterization about the reasons why Trump won.  It's a "white-lashing", he's sent America back 60 years, or middle-Americans are just dumb racist bigot hicks, couldn't be more wrong.  But white-supremisists and the group support him you say...well fine, but I'm sure he doesn't support them.  Those factions of people have always existed before Trump, and always will long after Trump as well.  And I would argue that for everyone of those people that blindly voted for Trump thinking he sympathized with their position, there was at least one person on the other side that blind voted for Hillary regardless of any policy because they thought "it would be good", or "it's time" to have a woman president.  To me that is just as equally dangerous.

    I think if you (and a lot of people like you) actually stopped whining for once in your lives and got out of your own bloody way, you might just find that he could be the best president you'll ever have.

    I'm Canadian but why are there protests three letters CNN.  They keep going over and over and over all the negatives about Trump keep dredging up old facts and will not let the public mover forward.  Wolf Blitzer is the absolute worst.

    This thread is hilarious.  Nothing will come out of this Comey thing and the Liberals are going to nuts. 

    Liberals are embarrassing themselves on a daily basis, and they're so much smarter!  

    You want to converse with someone who is down-to-earth?  Don't speak to a Liberal.

    Kate Bolduan, Gloria Borger, they're obsessed with everything President Trump stands for, it overflows into their commentary, enough to make a conservative nauseous
