‘Not Our President’ Protests in Major US Cities

Well I can certainly understand why they feel that way given the kind of campaign that Trump ran, how he acted, and what he said. I'm certain that if Trump had lost then his supporters would be doing the same thing, if not much worse.

Look, the rules are clear and obviously Podesta didn't eat enough flesh from his hands while feeding blood, semen and placenta omelettes to the kids they were screwing in the pool.

If you don't follow the norms of the democratic process and you lose then that is on you.

They dont give a fack about us. Your vote doesnt mean shit in this country.

Sickening, just sickening. Completely unhinged, mindless, chaotic, deranged individuals. I don't think some of these people even know why they are rioting. They just hate Trump for basically no reason. Or they just love violence. What exactly has Donald Trump done that is so vile and despicable that people would just smash shit up and threaten death upon him. His entire campaign has revolved around making america great again but for some reason that makes him an evil man.

@omnichris: Yall aint seen nothing yet. The American people will be heard. We didnt vote for Trump, the American people voted for Hillary.

@iandizion713: You know that Hillary did conceded the race, right? She already gave up, so this popular vote doesn't matter! Again, you're wasting your time.

@FireEmblem_Man: We dont care. Were moving toward Progressivism. Hillary can either join us, or step aside.

This is stupid. Not as stupid as the call to lobby electors to change their votes, but still quite stupid.

Obviously, she quits! She quit when she called Trump, she quit on her supporters, and she quits on you! You can break buildings, destroy properties, and hurt people, for saying that the election is unfair but that will only make your cause look worst than it already is. You are proving that your party is spoiled, violent, and deplorables to the world.

@FireEmblem_Man: We dont really care what people think about us. We will be heard. The American people didnt vote for Trump, we voted for Hillary.

How do you think Repubs who live in Cali have felt.....forever?

Stop crying about it and move on.

I think when the deportation process of illegal aliens begins we need to throw out a good portion of those so called american liberal leftists that think violence is the answer to everything. Either that or we build more prisons for them. Prison is definitely where some of these scum bags belong.

Its not about one place, its about the American people together. The American people voted for Hillary. We did not vote for Trump.

Okay, go move to California and support seceding from the Union. You won't be missed

you are complaining about people who are rioting against a man who based his entire campaign on HATE, calling mexicans rapist criminals, campaigning together with KKK leader David Duke, ban muslims from entering the country, saying Obama--the first black president in US history and a hero to minorities was born in Kenya. Now you are seriously asking why the shit has hit the fan or are you that stupid? If a less crazy republican like Jed Bush or Marco Rubio won the election, nobody would be out there protesting.

@FireEmblem_Man: We never run or hide, we fight for what we believe in. Our voices will be heard whether they like it or not. They dont want our vote to count...then now they must deal with the consequences of oppressing the will of the American people.

I think that the #notourpresident movement is a joke. So you're mad that Trump was elected and you wish that Clinton won. I get that, but that doesn't change the outcome.

Barring unforseen circumstances that prevent Trump from taking office before January 20th, the only way Trump won't be your president is if you leave and renounce your citizenship. Otherwise, Trump is going to be your president just as much as Obama was the president of the racists that said he wasn't their president when he was elected eight years ago.

@ad1x2: The difference is the American people voted for Obama, not Trump.

I voted for Trump in Cali and my vote meant nothing. Waaaa Waaaa

You've been crying forever, need a break yet?

It's not as if this lack precedent. The same thing happened with Bush II.

This is the system, for better or worse. Sometimes it works in your favor, sometimes it doesn't.

@mattbbpl: We know, thats why were fighting back. They will oppress our vote no longer.

Nothing wrong with blowing some steam.

Soon enough they will stop, and that's that.

hahaha

Yep, plus there has only been 5 Presidents that won the Electoral and lost the Popular vote in History

1: 1824 - John Quincy Adams

2: 1876 - Rutherford B. Hayes

3: 1888 - Benjamin Harrison

4: 2000 - George W. Bush

5: 2016 - Donald J. Trump

Most of the people who claim to hate Trump really don't know anything he's said or how he acts. They see out of context videos, hear out-of-context audio, and read headlines that have been skewed to make him sound worse than he is. They don't see the whole picture of his personality or all the good things he's done for people, just only the bad stuff. The media would mostly be to blame for that, don't you think?

Here's an example: the "grab by the ****" comment. All he says that if you're a star, you can do anything you want with women, even "grab them by the ****". It was an obvious joke and he didn't say "I grab them by the *****"", or "I have grabbed them...." etc. - The worst he says he that he's so attracted to women "he just starts kissing", but he's obviously not talking about rape. He literally says "they let you do it". The worst thing you can reasonably take away from that conversation is that Donald is a bit crude and demeaning towards women (insinuating women abandon their values for power), but all considering, I usually hear much worse whenever I'm hanging out with groups of girls.

BUT...the leftist media literally makes him out to being an admitted rapist, which is obviously insincere and false. He's crude, yes, but we already knew that. Without making him to out to be much worse than he really is, it's a lot harder to smear him. And most people listen to the leftist media, not the original recordings.

Pretty much everything I said applies to nearly every smear against him btw. Nearly ZERO of them hold up to balanced scrutiny.

its going to keep trending this way for republican presidents. If they continue their hate speech against minorities, the only way they will win is through the electoral votes. Its funny, after Obama walloped Mccain (10 million more popular votes) in 2008, the republican house and congress passed laws that made it harder for minorities to vote in a bunch of red states including texas, arizona, north carolina, florida, etc etc. Even with those disgusting tactics, Romney still got his ass wooped by Obama in 2012 by 5 million votes. I guess voter restrictions on minority + worst DNC candidate in a long time = president Trump.

@blaznwiipspman1: And yet he still couldnt get the American peoples vote.

And I guarantee you most of them didn't even bother to vote.

Who was it that said "be the change you want to see." ???

yep...a sham of an election from both sides. I will admit, I don't like hilary one bit. Bernie should have been the candidate in the first place.

@blaznwiipspman1: They would have still robbed us of our vote.

You guys think you are peaceful and full of love, yet everyone sees how hateful and racist the left has become.

@FireEmblem_Man:

@KHAndAnime: lol No, just no. He's said many disgusting things and mocked a number of people that was shown in perfect context. There was no "skewing" that needed to be done by the media. He's presented himself as a terrible person on sooooooo many occasions and one who lacks the temperament to be in any position of power let alone being President of the United States. Any one who defends him is trying to defend the indefensible.

Welcome to Americas newest game show Justifyyyyyy the Violence!

You've gotten this far and that's great but next up we have a toughy!

America wants to know! Can you Justifyyyyyy the Violence!

Indeed. You want your voice to be heard? Protest civilly and then show up in 2 years and make a statement. The elector lobbying stuff is pure garbage.

@FireEmblem_Man:

Okay, I'll never vote Democrat ever again, thanks for showing me how violent you are and prefer feelings to logic and facts.

@FireEmblem_Man: Bye felicia.

A majority of Americans did not vote for either Trump or Clinton, so perhaps you should have no President ?

Every vote counts... presumably so that all people, all regions, and a maximum number of issues are heard. Unless you live in a small population state in which case your vote is irrelevant in a simple first past the post election.

But, but Hilary got more votes.. ..yes.... and you are stupid if you think that (simple first past the post) would be a better system for a large federated system, spanning a huge geography with innumerable regional differences.

Way to disenfranchise a significant part of the population with your ill thought out... or not thought out.... knee jerk whining. The people that devised the system were clearly much smarter than these protestors and a number of posters in this thread.

Trumps going to be a pretty entertaining President, probably even more so than George Bush.

This is also why people are mad.

So lets flip this on the other end, why should rural votes have a weightier say in electing a president than urban voters? Each state is given a minimum of 2 electoral votes regardless of size?

I can't lie though, "die whites die" is a pretty compelling political message.

i support their right to protest peacefully but do not agree w/ their message.

Sure been nice if you angry angry people would have been angry enough to actually nominate your own party representatives for the election then. I didn't see nearly enough democrats flipping shit about the super delegates and maybe if you had you might not of had your DNC "bullying" everyone not Clinton to drop out/not run.

Your votes didn't count for shit for everything up to his point, why the hell lose your cool now?

The electoral college ensures that each state has a say. Are you saying people in Montana or Wyoming don't matter?

This is a message from the citizens of all democratic countries on Planet Earth to American liberals/progressives.

"Suck it up and grow up, fluffy cupcakes. "

The End.

Yet you think the elites are for Trump? They're afraid of him, just look at him tackling down WWE's Vince Meek Mahaan (McMahan)

I asked myself why people aren't protesting people like you for why Trump was elected, but then I realized why.
