India
January 15, 2017 10:51pm CST
Protests demonstrations and political boycotts will tangle with festive carousing and celebratory parties in Washington DC this week, setting the tone for four antagonistic years between supporters and opponents of billionaire deal-maker Donald Trump, who will be sworn in as the 45th President of the United States on January 20. What are your thoughts on this?

They need to accept the fact they lost. Move on, and learn why you lost.

No, we don't need to accept anything, we didn't really "lose" in the usual sense and regardless Donald needs to be held accountable and called out when he lies, which is every time he opens his mouth, and his extremist cabinet appointees need to be held in check.

@anniepa - but Hillary did lose . 3,084 out of 3,141 counties in the u.s. voted for trump. 30 out of 50 status voted for trump. The only reason why it looks like Hillary won the popular vote is because California and new York have huge populations. So with these two facts, it's hard to say she won anything.

That is natural , because people wants their candidates to be the one who won . Even here , there are always protests .

Protests are fine but in case of Trump things have been out of control.

On Friday I was totally depressed and filled with despair, to be honest, but when I got up this morning and saw all the peaceful protests all around my country as well as in just about every other nation in the world I felt somehow restored and hopeful. I know now I'm not alone and that together we'll fight this terrible thing that has taken over our country.

This isn't some small thing people are "whining" about, this is about a totally incompetent and unfit person now having our nuclear codes and therefore the capability of bringing about the total destruction of mankind.
