I'm a liberal and I am disgusted by the actions of some liberals

A friend of mine who served many years in the Army just got cursed in a Dunkin Donuts in Mass. by asking if they had a Veteran's special today. He was called a racist, bigoted Trump supporter.

Then some a-hole of Facebook that he doesn't even know cursed him again, because he voted for Trump.

These people do NOT reflect the opinions of all liberals. Although I despise Trump, I sincerely hope he becomes a great President, because I want what's best for the country. There are people who won't ever give him a change, just like a lot of people never gave Obama a chance.

If Democrats are upset about Trump winning the election, they shouldn't have nominated Hillary Clinton. It's that simple. They only have themselves to blame.

I have great gratitude to all who have served our country, including both of my brothers.

Dems need an awakening. They've gone entirely too far left in the last eight years.

For their sake, help some of your fellow liberals step back from the ledge.

My sincere hope is that all of the crazy emotion that people are going through begins to wear off soon. It is neither healthy for them or our country to be consumed with anger and hate.

Yeah some of it is really bad. They come off no better than conservatives who hyperventilate about Obama & called him a Marxist Kenyan Muslim.

Everybody just needs to calm the frick down. I'm not happy either but lets just take it day by day and issue by issue. For example, most on the left are anti-TPP. So is Trump. It's going away now. That's a good thing.

The sky is not falling.

Well Blitz, this place is so fractured and pissed off in all different directions it's going to be difficult to mend things.

This, my friend, is spot on. The protestors should be burning down the fricking DNC instead of rioting in the streets. Trump had less votes than Romney 2012 for gods sake. Bernie would have beat that arse and dems have themselves, the DNC, and the media to thank for Donald Trump.

The attitude of liberals, liberal politicians and the liberal media have caused this.

People choose their own actions.

The liberal side needs to have an awakening.

Yep. It was a fatal flaw in the Alinsky plan to accuse your opposition of what you're doing. How many times did we hear?

you should not have voted for a socialist-marxist who was mentored by a damn card carrying COMMUNIST! FACT!

a wealth redistributionist who sacked this country for 8 years. he was a failure across the board in all economic indicators where he had a chance to make a difference. another open borders POS globalist.

Let's be frank and call social progressives what they actually are. Consider that they:

-Refuse to accept the rule of law

-Will not engage in anything approaching political debate, but respond with vitriol and, in some cases, violence when they are thwarted

-Demand complete and total adherence to their way of thinking, and have been known to publically denigrate and destroy those who resist them

-Are actively opposed to any kind of morality

-Project hate towards a particular ethnicity

The social progressive movement is the new Nazi Party, period.

In the long run, I really don't think America CAN stay united. Think about all those ucla students and the high school students that refused to go inside their school and on and on

They will soon be adults. Shudder. we think the adult extreme left is bad now....imagine these rioting idiots all trying to sustain our nation as adults. What is going to happen to us? both sides are just WAY too different. They got together to share a primal scream? Weirdos

The real true hippies back in the day seem like geniuses compared to these fools. There was a war that they opposed. There was a purpose. These kids don't even know what they are fighting for. They say love! Whaaattt? They're going all rage on us.

I just don't see how both sides can be on the same page in the future. Too extreme.

Maybe trump can fix things enough that we keep winning elections and these idiots just have to deal. But I think they are going to take extreme measures eventually.

Meanwhile I worry they assasinate trump

I don't know
Maybe they'll calm down and realize in time that trump is really the boogey man they think he is
I hope they do but it's not looking good

I mean, what are they protesting? The results of a democratic election?

Again, the majority of the liberals I know have accepted the results and have resumed their normal lives, and are hoping for the best. But the loud, a-hole liberals will get all the attention.

But if I ever hear a "liberal" curse a Vet, there's going to be trouble. My friend did the right thing. He's a class act. He said "Have a great day" and walked out. That's when someone else should have stepped in.

Sane liberals need to have a major backlash against MSM, higher ed and their far left cousins IMO.

Disavow them publicly and often. They will get the message.

And for Pete's sake, stop giving out participation trophies and let kids play dodge ball.

Dude, you bave to realize that there are plenty like this on both sides. Most of the Trump supporters online are impossible to have a conversation with. They spew hate and are vile folks.

You want to know the difference between the two?

Why is it that people were actually frightened to state that they supported Trump publicly?

Not once did I hear about that being an issue for HRC.

I live in a heavily red state and there never were any issues for HRC supporters while there was a palpable fear of being publicly shamed or physically assaulted in the same state.

People still won't openly state that they voted for Trump.

Voting for Trump and stating that fact results in lost friends and family members because of the irrationslality of the progressives.
