Man, this is just a new and separate John Titor timeline that has been created with my Mandela time capsule....just kidding...
On a serious note this is a insurgency. These are people who are paid are domestic terrorists. Inciting violence and fear. I do not remember a time where it was 'just a thing' that 2 or 3 police vehicles would be destroyed on a daily or weekly basis around the country. That police would be shot for being police. Remember this was happening before the election and this is the spark. Blame the white people for voting. Point the hate there.
If the country is not careful there will be a flashpoint and it will not take a lot of people hurt and killed. How many cops were shot in Dallas and that was a BLM rally. Why was the BLM given so much money so late in the campaign. Because it was not meant to all be spent before and we are seeing the tendrils reaching out. Mr Trump is not in office yet and it is almost as if this is the Hail Mary. To continue to use the media to inflame the nation and perpetuate more hate.
Well, this is all Trump's fault for saying the things he said. As he said with the p*ssy comment, he thinks he can get away with saying anything. Now he's seeing there are repercussions to his words. This all got everyone by surprise because everyone assumed someone like Trump would never win and that Hillary would win easily. Trump's policies are toxic and hated. Stepping down wouldn't solve much since Mike Pence is just as bad as Trump on various issues.
The night he won lots of people cried. I had never seen so many people crying over someone losing. They were afraid of Trump's policies and that a person like him could be president.
Yes, Trump made a lot of idiotic comments.
But that certainly doesn't justify rioting.
As unappealing as Trump was, the united STATES of America apparently found Hillary slightly less appealing. The DNC failed to produce an electable candidate. Perhaps they've learned their lesson with regard to the poor treatment they gave Bernie.
The media destroyed Hillary with that BS email scandal. Let's be real here, no need to spin anything anymore - she lost. This was all over a potential hack to her private server. That was a real issue, but not THAT big of an issue. The government at all levels is hacked all the time. When the white house was actually hacked it was a tiny news story for a few minutes. Yet, Hillary's potential hack was covered for 2 years. It was the media trying to spin a story to death to make the race closer. 2 years of Hillary being called a "liar" over the emails and "careless" had an effect. If it wasn't for that email scandal she would have won in a landslide. The reality is that she wasn't that hated before that. When she left her job as senator her approval rating was 67%. When she left as SOS her approval rating was 70%. She took a nose dive with the email scandal. Comey bringing that up a few days before the election had the most effect.
Also, people assumed she was going to win. That didn't motivate people to go out and vote. My brother said "I'm going to go vote, but if the line is long I'm leaving. My vote doesn't matter anyway since she's going to win easily." That type of thinking also contributed to her loss.
Bernie was an independent that couldn't even get Dems behind him. He was very behind, no one did anything to Bernie. He was simply behind and got nasty near the end. Only naive people have issues with the DNC. Everyone knows the DNC picks a favorite years ahead of time. They always do that. Right now for 2020 they have their eye on Warren, Bernie & Tim Kaine. Those will be the leaders when the primary begins. Is the DNC biased? They are picking who they feel is strongest way ahead of time. If someone pops up out of nowhere, like Bernie did, he needs to start from the bottom. If he makes enough noise, in a few years he'll be the DNC favorite. In 2020 Bernie will be in Hillary's spot, as the "DNC favorite." It's how the system works. It was not rigged against Bernie. Had he garnered enough support, like Obama did in 2008, he'd be the nominee. He wasn't successful this year, but his strong showing will have him ahead in 2020. That's reality. No one cheated.

Polling showed pretty clearly that the email leaks didn't hurt Hillary. No one cared. And despite what some less than reputable internet media companies claimed, those emails showed very little damning evidence of anything. You could argue it might have made some people who might have voted for her refrain from voting altogether, but even that wouldn't have been true if not for her real problem:
Hillary did not inspire people. And she ran a campaign without any message.

I think sometimes the media being promoted to hurt DJT actually hurt HRC and maybe on occasion, a bit suddenly when it just hit a whining-hysteria-hyperbolic give-it-a-rest-already-ye-gods point.
There was a LOT going on in the media all the time during this campaign. I seriously doubt it's fair to say any single thing was the 'only' factor in anything, even in the same timeframe. And it certainly could not have abruptly caused the massive upset we saw.
This philosophy is the same problem that caused her downfall: the blaming of everything and everyone else but her. The assuming that anybody not wanting to vote for her had no reason but stupidity or evil.
Maybe she just sucked as a candidate.
I'd have voted for Bernie.

Right after the Comey letter she tanked in the polls. The emails did influence how people viewed her.

The groups protesting are puppets. They are young people who were raised in a generation whose parents never said "no" to their kids. Everybody got a trophy or award. Every one of them was told time after time "you're special" and "you're a winner" about issues in which said child wasn't special and half-assed their way to nothingness only to be called a winner regardless. If they wanted a toy, gadget, or justification, all they had to do was whine a bit and mommy and daddy buckled like a soaking wet paper towel tube and gave them what they were whining about in spades. In some small crevasse of my brain I actually feel sorry for these children... they grew up without the privilege of losing, unfulfilled wants, and any understanding of the vital lessons learned by experiencing life kicking you square in the ass. Considering many of these children probably cast their first votes for president in 2008 or 2012, they've never known the feels experienced when the rest of the nation tells you "No, we don't share your vision... now STFU or climb aboard and share the next 4 years' ride. with us." They're parents failed and now the rest of the nation is witnessing their childrens' public temper tantrum because of that failure.
On the plus side, incredibly important lessons are being learned right now. Actions have consequences. Some of these children will likely ruin their entire lives over this... and they will learn "Oh wow, I actually MUST learn to take responsibility for myself" as they appear in front of a judge and a jury. Some of these children will certainly recognize that their inability to handle their own emotions, namely disappointment and dejection, stemmed from a life of not experiencing them when they were young and the cost of failure was comparitively cheap and they will raise their own children differently. Perhaps the next generation will already know what a brutal mistress life can be and recognize that not getting your way from time to time is invaluable and can be quickly recovered from. Some, of course, will raise their own children even more piss-poorly than they, themselves, were raised and we will see a contingent of extremely special snowflakes with skin so thin it whistles in a breeze... and that's OK, too. Life has a funny way of running over those completely unprepared to handle adversity with their eyes wide open, mulching those individuals into obscurity.
So, as a parent I beg all other parents out there: SAY NO TO YOUR KIDS OFTEN! "Buy me that toy!" NO! "Can I have ice cream even though I sassed you?" Ha-Ha... HELL NO! "I didn't do my homework, can I still watch TV?" Hmm, let's see.... HOW ABOUT NO! But temper it with frequent usage of the word "YES," as well. "Will I have to pay you back for this window I broke?" YES! "Do you really expect me to finish my homework on Friday evening before I can do anything fun this weekend?" All signs point to YES! "So I have to do my chores to earn my allowance money AND save the money to buy my own LEGOs?" I'm receiving a message from beyond, om-nom-nom-shabai... om-nom-nom-shabai... it's says YES, YES you do. My kids know that I love them because I tell them I love them now, while they are 8 and 10. But in another 10, 15, 20 years, I want my kids to know that I loved them because I made sure they experienced disappointment when they were young. Further, when tantrums are thrown, and believe me, they are, consequences are swift and often horrifying to them. I have walked out of stores when a tantrum was being thrown, leaving a kicking, screaming child right in the middle of a toy aisle. It is amazing how quickly a tantruming child goes from full meltdown to "Oh crap, he just left me and strangers are pointing at me. Oh crap, oh crap. Daddy! Wait for me!" Toys have been not only taken, but donated to charity. Privileges have been removed, earned rewards have been delayed, and chores have been increased... not because I want to punish my kids, but because I love them enough to tell them life doesn't think they're special in all things and nothing entitles them to get their own way.

You see, in the past when people lost elections they simply rolled up their sleeves and tried to find a better way forward. That way didn't include beating up an old man at the polls, beating down a high school sophomore for her social media post or tearing up buildings and neighborhoods in what can only be called domestic terrorism.

What you liberals need to learn is something simple taught in elementary school. Just because you don't like something doesn't PROVE it is wrong. That is not the only option you know. The other option which comes in to play here is maybe YOU are wrong and the something you don't like is the RIGHT choice. Ever consider that? NOPE! Your views are the only views...your opinions are the only opinions...your candidates are the only candidates.
