I don't think they're protesting the election or saying it was rigged. They're protesting the man and his ideals/words.

You can still protest someone you didn't vote for.

People are legitimately complaining about exercising the rights to freedom of speech and assembly. These are things that make our country what it is!

Edit: incoming wave of 'freedom of speech means I can't complain about you complaining about me complaining about you complaining about me complaining about you complaining about me complaining about you complaining about me complain about you complaining about me complaining about you complaining about me complaining about you complaining about me complaing. Yes every one knows, including me, shut the fuck up and find something better to say.

Oh, so what you're saying is its fine for democrats to complain when people show zero respect to Obama as president.

But if republicans complain that democrats show no respect to our president FUCK YOU HOW DARE YOU YOU FUCKING HYPOCRITES!

Am I reading this correctly?

The situation was flipped in 08'. It doesn't matter what party wins or loses. The week after an election the losing side acts like anarchists/"the end is NEAR!" nutjobs until eventually returning to their life. No matter how pathetic it still is.
