It just occurred to me that if he runs for re-election and loses, the "You're fired!" memes are going to be epic.

Agreed. The theatrics and drama from all the Trump protestors are more ridiculous and useless than electing him.

You're missing the point. 100% There's more than half of the country that are outraged that this clown is now president. He ran completely on bigotry, lies, misinformation, hate, and over the top hyperbole.

He's done nothing since the election to change my opinion of him. If anything it's become worse. He's a man child who now holds the most powerful seat in the world.

I'm seriously afraid of what might happen in the next 4 years. I'm 56 years old and have been paying into SS for 40 years and both me and Linda are completely depending on it for our retirement. Overturning Roe v Wade is a reality which all of the bible thumpers are frothing at the mouth over right now. Gay rights? Same thing.

We're wading into ridiculously scary waters. It's no wonder LOTS of people are voicing their 1st amendment rights. Don't dismiss them so cavalierly.

One Canadian commentator's analysis of Trump's speech:

Rex Murphy: Trump delivered a plain, serious and monumental promise to give Washington back to the people

You're exactly right when it comes to the nature of his campaign, but I'm positive that Roe v Wade and gay rights will remain intact. Donald Trump isn't the only one who can be a fear monger, be wary of EVERYONE.

How will protesting simply his inauguration help this? Who will care? Wouldn't it make more sense to march on Washington when he does something worth marching for?
