Given the numerous illegal actions that have taken place in opposition of Trump's presidency, I think it is unconscionable for a political figure of Hillary's status to demand "her people" resist and do not stop. Given I have more respect for the institution than most. As much as I disagreed with Obama's policies in 8 years I never came close to the disrespect I've seen here and Nationally to a sitting President in only 1 month.
And that definition does not refute my position. Trying to get people elected that will oppose the policy from the White House is a form of resistance, do you not think people shoukd be doing that? Do you not think people should be expressing their disagreement with policy to the administration and to their officials? That is resistance. Had she used a word like fight, I could understand. Had she advocated anything specifically that was against the law, then you'd have a point. Neither happened. You're opinion of Clinton was already what it was and you are using that bias to make this ant hill, not even a mole hill, into a mountain.
