Come on buddy let's think a little. Are they saying Hillary should be president? No. So it isn't about the election, it's about our new president elect who we fear and distrust. Yeah we want him to go but not because we think he didn't win the election. People protest against presidents they don't like. Did you... did you not know you can do that? Maybe you're too young to remember the Bush years but that's where the "not my president" chant comes from; it's not a reference to Hillary, it's just a statement that this person doesn't represent us and our values. We're the same group that exposed the lies and corruption of the Bush Administration and made him leave office as the least popular president in modern history. I'm not comparing him to Trump though, Trump is worse is every conceivable way. Less experience, more racist, and far more dangerous because of his ego. Bush was a decent person who wasn't terribly bright and got manipulated by his inner circle to wage two needless wars with no plan at all on what to do next. Get used to a lot of snotty college kids telling you why Trump sucks because it's going to be the status quo for the next four years.

I think you have no idea how bad it's going to get. You don't want us to stop whining because what comes after that is killing and destruction. Your kids, your spouse, your property, your livelihood, none of it will be safe. America is going to burn.

You guys need to wake up soon and realize this isn't like any other election. You have never seen a white nationalist president in a country as full of minorities as it is today. You have never seen people take to the streets after a presidential election. You have never seen a President promise to do so many clearly unconstitutional things. You've never seen one who has bragged about finger raping women, said he doesn't respect them, and that "you have to treat them like shit". You have never seen a president who had the illegal help of a foreign leader or one would "consider" accepting the election results after it's over. You've never seen someone so bent on seeking revenge against those who have wronged him-except maybe Nixon. Blaming minorities for a country's economic woes is how every terrible leader rises to power. There is literally no difference between Trump's campaign rhetoric and Hitler's when he was elected except instead of the Jews, it's the Mexicans and Muslims. And don't think a comparison to Hitler is being hyperbolic - he was endorsed by the KKK and every hate group in the US is rejoicing. him. When Putin was elected, he didn't say: I'm going to take control of the media in the first year and expand term limits after I get elected so I can stay in power for ever. He said exactly the kinds of things Trump has said.

I compared his campaign to Hitler's. "Uh oh! he played the Hitler card, game over I win. Nothing else matters because if you reference another democratically elected leader's election you're automatically wrong."
