Bull. They would have said the same thing, just like they did about Obama. I love it. I love how the right is now trying to be all touchy feely with all this "our" president BS. While I don't hold the view that Mr. Trump is not my president, I understand the sentiment. How can Latinos, gays, Muslims, women and veterans proclaim this man as their president when he was so disgustingly derisive towards them for 18 months? Can you blame them?
Yes we can blame them. Obama has spent 8 years dividing the country and proving he's a party president, not an American president, he EARNED people saying he wasn't their president. Trump hasn't even been inaugurated yet and raving foaming at the mouth liberals are protesting. No one was protesting, looting, rioting, destroying property when Obama was elected, that's reserved for the "tolerant" hypocrites on the left.
Then leave the US. Those on the right would have accepted Hillary. They wouldn't like like it but would have accepted.
Those who do violence hopefully will be locked up.
I don't recall republicans taking to the streets and looting, burning, assaulting and destroying public property in 2008 or 2012 when 0bama won.
If people want to say "not my president" because they don't think that president espouses their views, fine. But time and time again, the democrats show us that they are our nations domestic terrorists.

I agree. But if Hillary had won conservatives would be saying the same thing. In this election, the losing side was going to whine and complain, period. There would be the same violence, and the right would not have accepted Hillary no different than the left are doing with Trump. There are moronic extremists on both sides of the fence.

Where was this type of nation-wide rioting and violence, looting, physical assault, or destruction of property displayed by republicans in 2008 or 2012? Go ahead, I'll wait

Had you been around this forum after the 2008 and 2012 elections you would have read the raw hatred and no shortage of threads/ posts by people who said they would never accept or support Obama. Some of the general public hung their flags at half mast and some hung or burned Obama effigies.
No shortage of I hate Obama / Hillary threads on this forum. Some of the crowds at rallies called for the execution of Hillary.
Some posters on this forum and others were readying for an armed revolution if Trump did not win. Imagine if Trump won the popular vote and lost the election, as Hillary did.
This is the way some people roll in the US and it's certainly not unique to this election.
This too shall pass and there will be no shortage of people who will never accept or support Trump no different than Obama or Bush or Clinton......
The Bush Derangement Syndrome became the Obama Derangement Syndrome and now the Trump Derangement Syndrome.
Only thing any of us really control is our own reaction. Being a special snowflake and getting ruffled at those who will never support the POTUS is as much as choice as public displays of disappointment and in some cases anger at the election outcome.
It's just one more nail in the coffin of delusion from the Trump side. Unless the original poster is that ONE gem of a person who really would have accepted a different president. I suppose it could happen...
There would have been whining and gnashing of teeth and outrage but no riots would have happened no wrecking of neighborhoods. Very few protests. Life goes on.
But the left are acting like spoiled brats for not getting their way claiming it's unfair. Hint, life is unfair.

This isn't 2008 or 2012. It's not the same set of circumstances. No comparison.
