Clinton supporters attacked trump celebrators and this is being equalized as “ clashes”

Here we go, next we’ll start hearing about the horrible “homeless problem” here in the US.

It starts...

There were a lot of threads all over the internet about violence from whichever party lost. As reality sinks in to those supporting Hillary, we will see where it takes them.

In Oakland, more than 100 protesters took to downtown streets. Local media reported that protesters burned Trump in effigy, smashed windows of the Oakland Tribune newsroom and set tires and trash on fire.

How is that any different than any other night in Oakland?..............

None of the 10,000+ Syrian “refugees” are homeless and Hillary had planned out homes for over 50,000 more. Why can’t the homeless be given those homes?

Think of the primaries as a skirmish....it flushed out the traitors of the GOPe and exposed the collusion of the MSM with the dims

Yesterday's event was the first major battle with the opposing forces....mostly on enemy territory...but a victory non the less.

The Dims, lobbyists, special interests, LaRaza, islamics and communists will not go quietly into the night.

Expect resistance to Trump's first 100 day campaign.

Oakland, CA (not Oakland, MI).

Last night I heard heavy helicopter presence from about 11:45 p.m. to 12:45 a.m.

I made a point of NOT checking the news all day yesterday, and I was praying constantly from sunup through my visit to my polling place to bedtime.

When I heard the helicopters late last night, I knew Trump must have won, because only thugs protest like that when things don't go their way.

So happy and so grateful to God for the good news this morning.

Several dozen protesters gathered in downtown Oakland on Wednesday to protest the election of Donald Trump as the next President of United States

Rival supporters of Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton clashed outside the White House after today's result was announced 
I'm assuming the guy in the blue shirt is the Trump supporter since he has a red hat guy behind him.

Jubilant Trump supporters cheered after it was announced he would become 45th President of the United States 
Trump supporters cheering victory.

But Democrats consoled each other on Pennsylvania Avenue shortly after Trump took to the stage in New York 
Democrat supporters boohooing

Trump supporters gathered in numbers outside the White House as early figures showed he was on his way to victory 
More Trump supporters
