They will have a hard time admitting it, of course.
EVERY time I try to give the guy a chance, he goes and does something stupid again. Watching the inauguration yesterday, I thought, "Okay. This guy is the new president. Maybe he feels a little over his head right now. His wife and son seem pretty decent. Maybe he won't be so bad." Then BAM, first action ****s over the working person.

That's your opinion. Don't expect everyone to be as thrilled as you are about Trump. How many years after Obama was elected did the Republicans "GET OVER IT?" Answer: NEVER. So don't expect Democrats to act differently.....

Meaning what? That the GOP, after 8 years, may actually think about doing something constructive instead of obstructive?

BFD!

I don't believe you. I don't believe you were nearly as accepting and/respectful of President Obama as you imply you were. I heard lots of your crowd say, "Obama is not my President."

But even if YOU didn't actually say those words, you likely joined in on the irrational Obama hatefest that lasted 8 years, and ranged from that stupid freaking Birther movement and supporting the endless, obstructionist tactics of the Republicans, to outright paranoia and threats of violence. So, fess up, Kev. You don't fool me none.

With that in mind, I have a few questions:

1) are you Trumpsters such "special snowflakes" and hypocrites that, if your leader experiences the same treatment our leader did for EIGHT YEARS, you and your fellow disciples will repeat your new mantra "Get out!"?

Are you familiar with the First Amendment? Do you, or do you not, support the Constitution of the United States? You Trumpsters always claim you're all about upholding the Constitution, no matter what. But, now, suddenly, you suffer an acute case of amnesia, forget all about your lofty "principles," and get all "butthurt" when the tables are turned. You seem to want to temporarily rewrite the Constitution to suit yourselves. Let's toss out that Free Speech stuff because it annoys you. Snowflakes. Hypocritical, dictatorial snowflakes is what you are.

Well, you'd better toughen up, and buckle up, because this ride has just begun.

2) why didn't YOU leave while Obama was President? Remember: I don't believe for a second that you accepted Obama as POTUS, or that you were respectful of him. So, why didn't YOU get out? You were "free to leave" for 8 years. Right back atcha!

Then again, perhaps you weren't old enough to have formed your own opinions of Obama, or to have left the US on your own accord, because you sound very young and impressionable NOW.

Yeah, I am just trying to have some fun. Sometimes I dream up an untenable argumentative position (e.g., Trump wants to share his riches to help the lower class get ahead in the world) and then articulate it into something a Trump supporter might say or think. Its cathartic, and it confuses Trumpists.

What's that line about Hillary? You want a woman president just not her, I want an outsider just not that freaking guy.
Of the two choices that could possibly win he was the best for me. I honestly did not trust her after watching the blatant lying.

I don't remember republicans wanting to cause riots while creating mass destruction and vandalism.
