My guess is that they will tire after this weekend, and then there maybe some more on, or after Jan 20, and then that will be it.

Because Hillary , Obama , and Sanders shouldn't be making the protesters any promises that they can't keep. They are powerless and can't reassure the protests that their fears of the Donald are unfounded. Who are the protester supposed to believe?

If anything, it will get cold soon. See if the criers can stand to be in snow in cold. When they started with Wall Street Occupy, the cold got the best of them. Also, most people are fine with protesting, but tire of it if is a bunch of criers who never got their way. Folks in the real world have to go to work and have no time for this nonsense.

They cannot publicly disavow or criticize the rioters b/c the rioters are the base of the Democratic party and the likes of Obama/Clinton/Reid know it.

It's the same when someone is killed by an illegal alien. The Democrats cannot reach out to the family or denounce the killing b/c they're in the pocket of the ethnic front groups like La Raza and are counting on illegals being naturalized to make up for the citizens they alienate with their insane policies.

In Obama's defense, he may not actually condone this behavior in his own mind but he's savvy enough not to publicly condone it b/c doing so would harm his party.

I really have no qualms with the country burning to the ground at this point.

As long as we put the protesters in the middle of the fire.

THIS^^^. Protesting is our right, and I support it. But this isn't protesting. I don't know what this is other than a nationwide pouting contest for the whiners. There is nothing to respect about what these people are doing. It would be laughable if they weren't so violent and destructive.

The bigger question is... why do we let it go on and on?

Yep, I have made up my mind to never vote Democrat again after watching these lawless behaviors.

And I agree that the reason Obama and Clinton don't ask their supporters to stop rioting because they are supporting them from behind. Why? Because they want to make it as hard as possible for Trump to govern when he takes over. I knew this when Obama said he is going make the transition of power as smooth as possible. If you saw his face and expressions on TV as he said these things, you would understand.

They don't speak out against it because this is America, not a banana republic in which protesters are silenced. People are allowed to protest anything they wish. And while there will be violent incidences and rioters here and there, which should be dealt with by law enforcement on a case-by-case basis, people are mostly peaceful. Carrying signs and walking down a street will not harm you in any way. Pick yourself up and stop insinuating that people should not have the right to protest.

But let's forget being rational. Let's ban news outlets, shut down protests, and install a dictatorial regime. Sounds great to me. I look forward to being forced to vote for Dear Leader Trump in 2020.
