Saw an article that they expect up to 900,000 people to protest Trump's inauguration.


Really?


I don't remember 900 or 90 or 9 people protesting Barack Obama's inauguration even though many of us didn't think he was going to do a good job.


I will say this to the 900,000. What if you each took the 2 hours of time and did something constructive with it instead? Gave time to your local food bank or a charity? Etc. Instead of bellyaching.


Trump won. It's over.

900,000? They are counting anti-Trump people in the nation and that's all they can come up with? They are counting people protesting in California, New York and got a total of 900k... that's sad news for the anti-Trump team...

It's never over. That's not how politics works.

In fairness, as responsible citizens, we had jobs to go to that day.

Yeah, talk about a protest.......

When these 900,000 morons show up to collect their check, and find out they've been lied too.......

Their lib task masters will have to make some new promises real fast to defuse that riot.

Not as many people hated Obama, so of course there will be more protesters. His approval was 80. Trump's is 40. Obama won the popular and electoral vote (and without any outside influence assisting).

And you are missing the point. This is definitely constructive.

And, actually, no, it is not over. It has only just begun.

People have not felt so much revulsion and anger towards a president since Nixon.

As the Trump cult so loves to say--Deal with it Buttercup.
