Arise President Trump!

[Alfie]

Who thinks that if Trump had lost, his supporters would have simply acquiesced and gone home quietly?  Personally I think there may have been as much if not far more trouble on the streets, so in a way I think it's a blessing in the short term that Trump won.  It would probably be all out civil war in the States by now had he not.

Trump's own words, from some of his rallies.  He seems to enjoy a good ol' punch up, especially when it's his "passionate" supporters delivering it.

"if you see somebody getting ready to throw a tomato, knock the crap out of 'em, would you? Seriously. Okay? Just knock the hell — I promise you, I will pay for the legal fees. I promise. I promise."

 "Get him out. Try not to hurt him. If you do I’ll defend you in court."  "Are Trump rallies the most fun?" he then asked the crowd. "We’re having a good time."

He then recalled an incident at a New Hampshire rally where a protester started "swinging and punching." Trump said some people in the audience "took him out."

"It was really amazing to watch," he said.

"See, in the good old days this didn’t use to happen, because they used to treat them very rough. We’ve become very weak."

In November, a Trump supporter "punched and attempted to choke" a protester at a rally in Birmingham, Alabama (according to the Washington Post); Trump said afterward that "maybe he deserved to get roughed up."

Me, I do.

You can think what you like about what might have happened.

But what actually has happened.... is Hillary supporters protesting democracy, the very thing they claim to support.

Me too.  What a bunch of hypocrites.

Clinton received more votes than Trump, so in a true democracy, she would have been elected.

Protesting is a democratic right.  They're just making their feelings felt about Trump, they're not calling for the election result to be overturned, so what's undemocratic about that?  I thought you advocated freedom of speech and all that?

As long as it suits his agenda.

By the logic of the brexiteers, they should be out complaining on behalf of Clinton, as she won more votes.

I've already seen though, that won't happen.

What's hypocritical about it?  In a democratic society we have the right to protest.  Millions of people think Trump is a danger to their country, they have the right to get together, speak up and say so.  Maybe under Trump that right will be revoked.  Who knows?   Of course they don't have the right to riot and commit acts of violence, but I don't believe they are ALL doing so.

' A GAY man has claimed Donald Trump supporters smashed a bottle over his head in a homophobic attack on election night.

Chris Ball was left soaked in his own blood after the blow knocked him to the ground and caused him to smack his face on the pavement. '

But a few too many.

However, tis lovely to think we don't all agree about everything.

He didn't lose he won so your speculation is pointless.

How did the guy with the bottle know the other guy was gay? I think I can see it one guy in a leather hat and chains the other shaved bald head and Doc Martins.
