Were there some protests under Obama? Sure but they were A. Peaceful. B.They actually cleaned up after themselves. C. Weren't endless.

Let's hope these women clean up their area after they're done instead of doing the usual liberal-trash and run thing.
That in and of itself will be telling...

So they fancy they speak for all women as they prance up the mall with their little kitty hats and their silly signs?

Newsflash, they do not.

I have no doubt. Trump himself said he likely would not accept the results if he lost.
Two lousy choices and we got stuck with one of them no matter what.

Does anyone take liberals seriously anymore?
You read it on the internet so it must be true, eh?

You forgot to mention Vince Foster.

People believe anything when it seems to validate their perceptions.

Most likely none......most were saving ammo, collecting guns, food and heading for safer ground. Beats the hell out of knitting pink hats!


Thank God Hillary lost.......the woods are full of snow in most parts of the US. Seems like global warming is not being talked about.

Women voters aren't a monolithic voting block. We don't line up and vote based on "gender identity". You don't speak for me.

Keep it peaceful today and don't embarrass the rest of us too much with the silly hats and dumb signs, Ok?
The protests ARE for issues we disagree with. Trump is the embodiment of those issues.

The crowd in Boston today has exceeded pre-event estimates by tens of thousands as there are thought to be nearly 100,000 assembled on the Boston Common in the city known for resisting tyranny. The commuter rail and MBTA subway system could not handle the volume of Trump protesters.

Being disinvited as a sponsor is not even close to being "denied entry". Complete poppycock! Just more right wing snowflakes whining about non-existent victimization.

That's probably the best assessment I have read/heard anywhere. Beyond the loathing, it's a serious mixed bag of interests.
