2016 Election: There's nothing like an election to bring out violent hatemongers, the narrow-minded bigots and the just plain intolerant extremists. And no, we are not talking about Trump supporters here, but the legions of left-wingers who are showing off their true colors.
According to the current vote tally, Donald Trump secured 60 million votes. Exit polls show that 42% of women cast ballots for the Republican. Nearly half (49%) of independent voters backed Trump. So did 14% of LGBT voters. Trump did better among blacks, Latinos and other minorities, as well as lower-income voters, than the ultra-noncontroversial Mitt Romney did in 2012.
Trump did almost as well among college graduates as Clinton 45% to 49% and captured half of the suburban vote.
In other words, his support was widespread.
But almost as soon as the election results came in, many on the left exploded in anger, smashing windows, setting fires, calling for Trump to be assassinated, and labeling his supporters bigots and sexists who should be murdered. Protesters burned Trump in effigy, and passed around a stuffed figure of Trump in a noose.

You’re late to the party, pal.
H->8ters!
Domestic Terrorists
They will increase the violence.
And we will very soon have no choice to call them out.
Not nice to think, but it is being thought.
They are deplorable. Pray for DT & family’s safety.
Why do liberals find it necessary to assault people, destroy public and private property, and riot when they lose? Is this really the kind of people that should ever be running the USA? With the expose of DNC bird dog paid agitator violence, the answer is absolutely not.
That’s OK.
The more people saying it, the more opportunity some liberal will have to read it and maybe something will finally sink in.
How is this IBD editorial author late to the party? This editorial seems very consistent with their past editorials.
This is why liberals are anti gun. They know if they had them, they’d do terrible things; so they project the same lunacy onto normal healthy citizens.
Very good article. Sad but true.
I have a liberal family and they are taking Trump’s victory very hard. It was a shock, given the polls and reporting they chose to follow. Had they subscribed to IBD, they would have been better prepared :)
I hope they can keep it up. It will remind Trump how foolish it would be to compromise with these fascists.
Paints the perfect picture of Ol' Mitt.
The left loves to point to the other side and shout “HATE!” while they sit there and hate, hate, hate you.
“Trump did almost as well among college graduates as Clinton 45% to 49%”
Kind of hurts the talking point about uneducated white men pushing Trump over the top, doesn’t it?
Where is that helmet when we need it?
