The anti-Donald Trump movement is on the march, taking to the streets in select cities and towns across America to say, in not-so-peaceful ways, the newly elected commander-in-chief is “not my president,” the electoral count be danged.

Demonstrators carried flags and burned effigies of Trump, snarling traffic and setting fires at random.

Thousands in California, for example, burned a massive paper-mache Trump head in downtown Los Angeles, while others in the Oakland area set fires at key intersections in the heavily traveled streets.

Also in Los Angeles, protesters beat up a Trump pinata and then, in a curious display of left-eating-left – given the newspaper’s endorsement of Hillary Clinton – sprayed graffiti and profane anti-Trump sentiments all over the building of the Los Angeles Times newspaper. Yet another protester stood outside City Hall in Los Angeles with a sign that read, “This is very bad.”

Just curious: What did this intrepid protester think those inside would do? Perhaps fling open the windows, a la the actors in that television commercial who shout “I want my money and I want it now,” and collectively scream: “I want Hillary Clinton and I want her now.”

But that’s the logic of the left – and hey, if it works for infants, why not?

From Politico:

“Late in the evening several hundred people blocked one of the city’s busiest freeways, U.S. 101 between downtown and Hollywood.

“In Oakland, several thousand people gathered in Frank Ogawa Palaza, police said, clogging intersections and freeway on-ramps.

“In Chicago, where thousands had recently poured into the streets to celebrate the Chicago Cubs’ first World Series victory in over a century, several thousand people marched through the Loop. They gathered outside Trump Tower, chanting ‘Not my president!'”

And yet, there’s this, from a Chicago resident named Michael Burke, quoted in Politico:

“[Trump will] divide the country and stir up hatred.”

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this week’s episode of the Twilight Zone, where Burke, no doubt a law school dropout, said the country has a constitutional duty not to accept Trump’s win.

More from Politico:

“A similar protest in Manhattan drew about 1,000 people. Outside Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue in midtown, police installed barricades to keep the demonstrators at bay.

“Hundreds of protesters gathered near Philadelphia’s City Hall despite chilly, wet weather. Participants — who included both supporters of Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton and independent Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, who lost to Clinton in the primary — expressed anger at both Republicans and Democrats over the election’s outcome.

“In Boston, thousands of anti-Trump protesters streamed through downtown, chanting ‘Trump’s a racist’ and carrying signs that said ‘Impeach Trump’ and ‘Abolish Electoral College.’ Clinton appears to be on pace to win the popular vote, despite losing the electoral count that decides the presidential race.

“The protesters gathered on Boston Common before marching toward the Massachusetts Statehouse, with beefed-up security including extra police officers.

“A protest that began at the Minnesota State Capitol Tuesday night with about 100 people swelled at is moved into downtown St. Paul, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reported. Protesters blocked downtown streets and traveled west on University Avenue where they shouted expletives about Trump in English and Spanish.

“There were other Midwest protest marches in Omaha, Nebraska, and Kansas City, Missouri.

“Marchers protesting Trump’s election chanted and carried signs in front of the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C.

“Media outlets broadcast video Wednesday night showing a peaceful crowd in front of the new downtown hotel. Many chanted ‘No racist USA, no Trump, no KKK.'”

More assembled outside the White House, singing songs and holding candles; others, outside the American Airlines Center in Dallas; still more, in the streets of Seattle, to declare “misogyny has to go” and “the people united, will never be defeated.”

Sane America, take heart. Chances are, most of these protesters will be deported in the coming months.
