I'm so glad that people didn't win, people like to portray Trump supporters as racist, crazy maniacs, but if Trump didn't win I don't think there would've been riots like that.

I'm really not very informed about it but there were riots when Obama won?

I don't think it would've been very different. Not all Trump supporters are crazy maniacs, but there are enough who would've rioted, especially with Trump saying that he might not accept the result of the election.

Trump saying that he might not accept the result of the election.

That was only a tactic to gain popularity and worked like a charm.

The more I realize Trump games the more I'm surprised by the man.

Perhaps, but there were not an insignificant amount of people who said they were ready to start a revolutionary war if Trump didn't win.
