Donald Trump is now the President of the United States. None of the moves by those on the left were successful in stopping him. Not the campaign of Hillary Clinton, nor the efforts to create “faithless electors,” nor the efforts to hamstring the process of counting the electoral votes in Congress worked.
Anti-Trump forces have promised violent protests during the inaugural festivities, and they kicked off their efforts at the “DeploraBall” that was held in Washington on Thursday evening. As things turned nasty outside the event, protestors began throwing eggs and even punching punching Trump supporters.
These, of course, are not the acts of principled opposition to Mr. Trump, but are acts of mob violence, designed by frustrated thugs to spread their misery on to others. As such, they are failures and losers.
Police were on the scene to disperse the hoodlums with tools such as teargas. Obviously, the DC police were well-prepared for this sort of thing.

This Trump-supporter felt the wrath of these hooligans personally.

Again, what we have here is a mob of miscreants who are unable or unwilling to express themselves in any way other than by committing violence. Two things: Their message should be ignored by the public, and they should be locked up by the police. We can then get on to more important matters, and they can continue their protests from their jail cells.

All their screaming and tantrums had no effect. A totally wasted effort. Time to gather up your coloring book and Play Doh and retreat to your safe place and let the grown ups do their jobs.
This is a stellar example of the loving and tolerant liberals.
Where are the security?
All those cameras should catch them then arrest them
Peaceful.
“Their” when it was actually “he/she”. F**e a$$ media….
Don’t know if this has been mentioned, but the Hollywoodpecker heads have contributed to these snowflakes lack of moral and loss of touch with reality. Violence doesn’t really register in their pea brains, folks. They have been seeing it since birth. Lots of things need to change, absolutely including getting the Socialist and Marxist the hell out of our school from K thru grad schools.
They are not used to not getting their way. Mommy and Daddy never said “no”.
I thought love trumps hate!
If it is confirmed Soros paid for the violence then Trump should turn his$#%&!@*over to Putin. They have a bounty on his head but it would go a long way towards peace and solidarity between the two countries.
