Newsflash: At least half of the people who voted FOR Trump think he is a scumbag (and the other half aren't so sure about him). And he still won. Sort of reminds me of Bill Clinton (Democrats: "Yes he is a scumbag. But he is our scumbag!"). Americans electing scumbags is nothing new. Look at Nixon...
I don't love it, either. To the victor go the spoils. He won, plain and simple. There will be opportunities to re-group and do battle with him very soon. These protests do nothing. Now is the time to get ready to fight tooth and nail, not throw tantrums in the street.
