For a couple days the desperation and whining of the left was actually pretty entertaining. Now...it's just tedious. I understand what parents mean when they refer to the "terrible twos".
"The Huffington Post spoke to several advocates who have spent decades working toward ending violence against women. Many expressed feelings of uncertainty, confusion and anger since Trump’s election. They had hoped for an incoming administration that would be supportive of their work, both ideologically and financially. "
First, the Huffpo is an alt-left rag. Second, way to marginalize women, people. The left wants to make women seem like weak marshmellows, incapable of dealing with stress productively: they need their therapy dogs, playdoh, and coloring books. Give me a break!
Now, I admit we currently have a culture that seeks to wussify women, and men for that matter, so that they aren't required to deal with reality. We're seeing an example of this with the non-voting protesters out protesting Trump.
My hope is that folks learn to grow a pair once again, men and women. We aren't Europe or Canada. We're America and all that entails. People that don't like it, leave.

Rant (sort of) over.
There is a lot more going on here than I really want to address, but I can't just pass over the comments I put in bold type.
Who, exactly, are "we?" I am just as much of an American citizen as you are, and if I don't like something, I don't feel compelled to leave because you say so. Try to change it, absolutely. But just get the hell out of "your" country? I think not.
This "America, love it or leave it" line of thinking is a steaming pile of ripe manure.

First off, your thread title is a misleading lie. To use the phrase "increased violence", would seem to indicate that there was violence against women to begin with. There is no evidence of Violence against women from the Trump election.
Secondly, These women seem to be over emotional over nothing. NOTHING! "Uncertainty? Confusion? Over what? What uncertainty? What confusion? Anger? Why? This is just fear mongering BS
Thirdly, Trump has not even taken office yet, and these Women have already made up their minds that Trump, despite saying absolutely nothing to the contrary has totally given up on supporting women both ideologically and financially. WTF are they basing this on? Huh?
This is absolutely liberal projection.

Reason: language
I thought with Trump and Giuliani crimes will have a significant decrease.
Honestly the post-election protests increased fear among many.
That is by design. Why is there so much fear? The only people who have a right to be fearful are those here illegally. The rest can relax. You're being dramatic over nothing. Trump treats his female executives better than Hillary Clinton does, and pays them better too. His campaign manager is the first female to ever achieve what she did. Look at the Trump turnaround since she took over for Manafort. She deserves some accolades, but like Condoleeza Rice and Sarah Palin learned, female achievement is only celebrated if you are a liberal. Otherwise, you're either stupid or a Stepford wife.
