Can we take a moment and acknowledge that there are protesters on television calling Trump an illegitimate president, and some even calling for civil war to take him out of the office?
The media constantly had discussions about this kind of thing happening if Hillary won... not once did I hear them speculate what some Hillary supporters might do.
This is the disturbing irony. Hillary has done this election what the republicans did with the tea party, except perhaps more dangerous and less politically cohesive: She's riled up an intolerant and violent political force that denies the legitimacy of the other side and wont even consider compromise.
The DNC spent all this campaign smearing trump with every extremist label they could, racist, xenophobe, mysoginist, hitler, tyrant, fascist, rapist. Now they've stirred up protests, unruly and often violent. These disaffected hate trump 100x more than tea partiers hated obama. By trying to manipulate their base, the DNC stirred up an ugly spectre that will haunt america for a generation
There will be blood in the streets and a dozen more ambushed police before long. We can only hope the immediate protests stay impotent white suburbians
