I think it's a terrible shame that this is happening. I'm also surprised since the popular vote was very close.

While Hillary did beat Trump by a slight margin with the popular vote, I would expect violence and riots only if she had beat him by a very large margin.

In this particular election, however, a lot of people were pretty quick to admit that they voted for a candidate not because they liked the candidate so much, but that they thought it was the best option of the two. The lesser of two evils, shall we say.

I think that these riots are going directly against what the leaders of our country want. President Obama and Hillary Clinton have both said that they want a smooth transition, and even Trump seems like he's prepared to work together with the Dems to tackle some of the countrys current serious problems.

I wish people would simply stop being so selfish and just start getting along and working together. Protesting and rioting is not going to change anything for the better. Trump is president-elect, and on January 20th he will be sworn in as our 45th president, no matter how many people protest.

I stay stop all the BS and let's start working together.
