Sure doesn't sound like it
The “Not My President” protests on Presidents Day were further evidence that liberals are simply against anything and anybody Trump!
When Tucker Carlson asked a protester on “Tucker Carlson Tonight” to name one specific thing they were protesting against, he shifted the subject to other protests that had occurred. His apparent point was that a lot of people are anti-Trump, but he could not name one serious policy he’s against, other than the fact that Trump has not released his tax returns.
They are against America.
About a month ago, just before the inauguration, I was in Trump Tower, and Steve Bannon asked “Do you think they’ll catch on?” meaning the libs in general and the media in particular catching on to Trump and his mission, his message, and his movement.
I said “Not a chance. They are way too arrogant to seriously engage in self-criticism.”
The hypocrisy that amazes me is the “no blood for oil” leftists who opposed Bush in Iraq are completely gung-ho on the Trump-Russia propaganda and promoting war with Russia.
In particular, the same “anti-police state” groups suddenly see the CIA and NSA as pillars of probity and virtue, because insiders there are leaking against Trump.
They are complete and utter hypocrites.
They are against whatever the Nazi-funded masters tell them to oppose at any given moment.
The Not My President” protests are just like a pack of dogs on the run have no idea where they are going or why.
AT some point you just have to tell them to sit.
They haven’t a clue. All they know is that whoever it is beat Hillary, their lord and messiah. And beyond that, they neither know nor care.
Say it with me, kids. “Hey hey, ho ho...”
Most of them are being used and manipulated because they are ignorant of the facts. They are true Useful Idiots.
God can, of course, do what man cannot.
God can humble the proud and then exalt them His way by showing them their need, and then in His grace uniquely meeting it.
These poor whining people, like a whining child who thinks having to give up a little gewgaw is like the end of the world, don’t know how much their better interests are met by God through Donald Trump’s initiatives.

>> “Do the Trump-haters even know what they’re against?” <<
Freedom, decency, America.

No.
For 8 years, they all had a needle in their called "Obama", and now they are going through a very painful and difficult withdrawal.
This is why people see fake news as a reality...and a threat.
That has its hazards. The people whose opinions they're disparaging and whose very existence they loathe will, at some point, resist the encroaching violence with serious violence in return. Revolution isn't quite so much fun when that happens, but it's very difficult to stop at that point.
They count on the TV to tell them that.
From a reading of their goofy signs, banners and posters, they are against EVERYTHING.
They are protesting the fact that there is not and never will be a President Hillary Rotten Clinton.
My thoughts exactly.
When watching Trump’s inauguration speech, I kept thinking how many points the left could have rallied around if they only sat down and listened.
“America first” is actually a pivot away from what the left criticized in the past as imperialist and colonialist interventionism.
Trump was not only saying we should stop giving away our wealth to people who hate us, he was also saying we should stop assuming we’ll always have access to the world’s natural resources while imposing a quid pro quo wrt western cultural standards.
We need to acknowledge that some cultures have no desire to be like America; they don’t “get” Jeffersonian democracy and never will.
Thus, we shouldn’t bring those people here, but neither should we intervene in their affairs. He specifically said ANY country has the right to protect its borders.
We have all we need to sustain us right here.
He was preaching “sustainability” and “power to the people.”
The young folks who should have been listening were too busy rioting.
