Stop the insanity!
Days after Donald Trump stunned the world by winning the presidency, liberal America remains in the throes of a massive mental and emotional meltdown.
Anti-Trump protests have spread to more cities and continue to turn violent. In Portland Thursday night, rioters stoned police and vandalized businesses and cars.
Anyone expressing support for Trump has become the target of unrestrained venom: There are calls to boycott New Balance — its sneakers have been publicly burned — because an official said Trump would be better on trade issues.
Meanwhile, the CEO of Grubhub, the online food-delivery service, demanded that employees who agree with Trump resign, because “you have no place here.” (He had to retreat: His lawyers read him the First Amendment and noted that political discrimination also violates California law.)
This is just vicious stuff. But for pure pathos crossing into the absurd, we turn (as usual) to the college campus. Consider:
The University of Michigan offered its traumatized students coloring books and Play-Doh to calm them. (Are its students in college or kindergarten?)
The University of Kansas reminded its stressed-out kids that therapy dogs, a regular campus feature, were available.
Cornell University, an Ivy League school, held a campus-wide “cry-in,” with officials handing out tissues and hot chocolate.
Tufts University offered its devastated students arts and crafts sessions. (OK, not kindergarten — more like summer camp.)
At campuses from elite Yale to Connecticut to Iowa and beyond, professors canceled classes and/or exams — either because students asked or because instructors were too distraught to teach.

GLEANED FROM SAVVY FR POSTS: The Big Ten schools are Penn State, Ohio State, Michigan, Michigan State, Indiana, Purdue, Illinois, Northwestern, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, and Nebraska. 12 universities in 9 states. Trump carried 7 of the 9 states.
Plus Maryland and Rutgers.
14 U's in 11 states; Trump was 7 of the 11.
“That’s a female?”
Just because it’s anatomically correct doesn’t mean you want to be seen in public with it.
A nation of vaginas.
Here in Virginia the thugs don’t come out to beat people to a pulp. Too many of us are armed and will protect ourselves so they behave.
For me, Doonesbury and Bloom County were funny early on. As the authors grew older, they became more polarizing and a lot less funny. My local paper growing up moved Doonesbury to the editorial page because subscribers kept writing in to say they read the funnies to laugh and Doonesbury wasn’t funny, just political. Last I checked in on Doonesbury, it still wasn’t funny. Just topical liberal soap-opera.
This is not liberal meltdown. This is incitement to riot in an attempt to convince the electoral college to put HRC in the White House or else the riots get national.*
Like Barack Obama incited riots in Kenya to put his cousin Ondinga on the ruling council when he did not get voted in.
*Like there would not be riots if EC flipped!
You could replace Donald Trump with Bill Clinton in that strip to tell the same joke the same way. But it would never occur to Trudeau to do it.
Yeah, those OJ fans were the same deluded privileged self-loathing White-Guilters in Europe who hold up yuge signs supporting and welcoming Muzzie Refugees.
Yup. MUCH better truthful reinterpretation.
0bama will NOT lift a finger, wet-dreaming the movement becomes viral and he is compelled to declare Martial Law.
We're not sure-still waiting for lab results.

LIBERAL SNOWFLAKES
I laugh at these LIB degenerates rioting. May they soon receive swift Justice.
Editor to Roland: "That's a Lilic bush".
That was actually an amusing story line.
...until Jan. 20 2017!
That needs to be photoshopped into that picture.
Purple sign! Purple again! What’s with all this purple?!
You'll find them laying underneath the Muslims and Mexicans, believing they're striking a blow for social justice.
Soros and Hillary have started an organization to create constant civil disobedience and riots while Trump is in office. Purple is it's color.
PRESIDENT Trump needs to do... something... about both of those enemies of America.
Perfect!
Whoopee. I said Clinton is not my president. I said Obama is not my president.
Welcome to the clubs, libs. The difference is, I don’t go out and shoot up the opposition just because I didn’t like an election outcome.
You dirty rotten bastards do. You are as violent and intolerant as you are hypocritical, you flaming evil jackasses.
