Riots would probably get amplified but not necessarily started over a Trump presidency.
Example: next May, a few months into a possible Trump regime, a black man in Philly stabs 769 people then when cornered by cops doesn't put down the knife and gets shot.
The following riots by BLM protesting the treatment of this angel will be more violent/destructive because Trump is in the White House.
And then trump sends in 5000 troops with rubber bullets and snuffs out the thuggery in just a few hours
Right now the gold standard in election predictions belongs to Nate Silvers 538 in my opinion. Currently Trump has a 14.1% probability of winning. So while it is unlikely for him to win, its certainly not THAT unlikely.
As for what to do if Trump were to win...shrug. Same thing I do now. I go to work everyday, and try and enjoy my weekends.

LOL. Oh you have NO idea what would happen next do you? A nice sound bite. Reality of it would be FAR different. This sort of thing is a horrible thing to occur in a democracy. Once the open combat starts its hard to fix a country.
But my real question here is what will Democrats (both the people and the politicians) do if Trump actually wins?
Will Democrats "accept" Trump winning? OR will they throw a fit, demand investigations, recounts and indulge in their favorite form of protests....Riots?
What will Democrats do? I can't say, considering they are a very diverse group of individuals, you'd have to ask each and every one what that individual will do to get an honest answer. But I don't think you want an honest answer. So, I'll tell you what I, an individual liberal, will do if Trump gets elected:
Life will go on, much the same as it does now. Not much will change. I'll get up Nov. 9th, pray for my country, and the world much as I do most days. If it's a Thursday, I'll go to my women's group, where we do Bible studies and pray together. I'll wait and see what he does, how he governs, and if I don't like it, in four years I will vote against him.
Trump is SURGING! Krauthammer just went LIMP............................(he hates Trump and isnt afraid to show it).
Oh My GOSH! He might hit a 15% possibility of success.
Seriously, Trump is VERY unlikely to win. But he has a chance. Lets not be unrealistic though. Currently the most probable result is a massive Clinton blowout.
