Protests & Marchers Just Sore Democratic Losers We Can Ignore. GOP.

GOP, Trump supporters, RW Christians et al are just saying that the demonstrations are just sore losers made up of liberals, progressives, Democrats, LGBTQ, socialists and others who lost and should get over it an keep quiet.

We have won and we will rule because we won MOST of the votes. Yada Yada Yada.

We were not able to ignore the Republicans. This country's system allows a minority to have power. That's how they got their orange one installed.

We should keep protesting. That is obviously getting them upset.

Tells me that despite tRump and their media outlets claiming they won the majority of popular votes, etc., that they actually know this was (1) a tampered with and stolen election and (2) the majority didn't want tRump.

I keep telling those on the right that "I will give tRump just as much respect as he gave Obama for 8 years." I plan to stick by my pledge.

Part of me is hoping it all implodes and they get their comeuppance because it couldn't happen to a more bigoted, racist, hateful, selfish bunch of people, but I don't want all of us to suffer because of their wicked ways and lack of empathy and refusal to study anything with real facts or to think critically.

Who is the snowflake? Who needs a safe space?

I'm not going shut up. On the plus side, they weed themselves out of my social media feeds like the good little followers they are! Oh, and they really hate it when you call them "comrade."

But yes to your last - we will all pay for their toxic stew of cognitive dissonance/ignorance. That is the worst part.
