Haha, that's what LBJ said about the Vietnam protesters that constantly protested across the country. They eventually brought him down in 1968. Perhaps the same will not happen to Trump, but it will make Republicans who are up for reelection in 2018 very nervous and more prone to not give Trump a rubber-stamp.
Don't underestimate the power of the people. Free speech is a wonderful thing.
This ain't Vietnam and the protestors have zero power cause nobody cares about protests for being crybabies.. democrats don't vote in non-presidential elections, and many, many democrats are up for reelection.. your side is in deep deep trouble... extinction-level event... ironically, your side is only making it worse for you and not the GOP....
....white women discovered only black women were wanted for the woman's march....."The culprit: "intersectionality," a brand of feminism....that "asks white women"...."to acknowledge that they have had it easier.".....victimhood is sorted by category, tallied and ultimately ranked."
Lovin' it.
They're all fighting with each other.

He's your president for the next eight years.
That sounds legitimate to me.

And lost.
We're not a democracy, we're a republic.
I suggest studying civics if you missed out on it.

We have a lot of db's in this country.
His being hated is actually a good sign.

It is interesting that many complain about foreign influence in the election... but have no concerns about taking Soros' foreign funds to fuel the protests.
Or all the illegal aliens voting in California.

If he'd also won the popular vote, I'd agree with your assessment.
He'd also have higher poll ratings. But, hey... whatever.
He won.
That's all that counts.

The spin part, btw, was you trying to make it sound like he pulled off some sort of landslide.
I'd call 30 states to 20 states a landslide. Ditto 304 electoral votes to 228.

They have grown up to hate what America stands for and they plan to bring big trouble on Inauguration Day. It is possible that by this weekend some places in this nation could be in chaos. These whinny millenial leftist may eventually tear this nation apart in thier attempt to rework it into some kind of pinko socialist utopia that they envision it being. These are not democrats, at least not the kind we all have known in saner times. These folks are extremists, they are not the kind of people who voted for Kennedy, Carter or Bill Clinton. Inauguration Day could be just the beginning of a dangerous period in our history. These deep divisions in our country have been building between leftist and traditional conservative types for decades, confrontation has been inevitable for a long time now. I worry that time is very near. We should all be worried for our great nation today.
These people are a bunch of wussies. No one has cracked down on them for the last 50 years. Trump will.

2018 is going to be a terrible year for Democrats. Many more of them are up for reelection in the Senate than Republicans -- and in states that voted for Trump.
If Trump had won the popular vote but lost the electoral college vote, I'm sure we'd be hearing about how great the electoral college is from the Democrats.

Do democrats even vote in mid terms? Most seem to think the presidency is the only election that counts.
People waste a whole lot of time over nothing. This shows the real weakness of Democrats, and they are known for starting riots and harboring over-the-top temper tantrums. Meanwhile, we'll have an historic inauguration that could be the greatest in years, and all Dems want to do is ruin the proceedings for the rest of us.
In the end Trump won more states, more electoral votes. Sorry but America isn't just about the big cities.
Hillary lost states that have voted blue for decades. She really was that bad. She was so bad that a snake oil salesman like Trump beat her.
It's weird how Trump campaigned in Wisconsin but not California. It's like he had a strategy based on the electoral college or something.

No, they don't vote in midterms, generally speaking.
That's one of the things we love about them.
