He has proven that he's a sucky HC. I think we're safe.

Never before in the history of the United States has a hostile foreign power made such a deliberate effort to interfere in our election and sway it in a particular direction. There was nothing typical about the way that Trump won the election. Regarding your sixth point, here's something that's been making the rounds on Reddit lately: Care to tell me which one of those don't aptly describe Trump's actions so far? I can make a case for any of them. The fear, in the case of gay marriage and for LGBT rights overall, is not with Trump, but with his appointment of conservative justices that will ignore stare decisis and will roll back previous holdings supporting gains in those areas. The Republican platform is virulently opposed to LGBT rights. You're talking to a conservative. But it has already been ruled, and I see no possibility of it going back. No one is concerned with those that are here legally - it's what happens to those who have come to this country, worked hard, contributed to society - and will be denied any chance at a path to citizenship. Those people take almost nothing from society - they hold jobs most Americans won't touch, they can't qualify for most social support programs or "entitlements", they can't access healthcare and the list goes on and one - but contribute greatly to it. And we DON'T want them to gain citizenship? They are the very kind of people we SHOULD want to provide a path. I hold a slightly awkward view on immigration. If they come here, they had better be able to fend for themselves. That means working those jobs, and being able to provide for yourself. Once you can provide for yourself and prove to be a basic American, feel free to become a citizen and pay your own tax dollars. He did so only after a considerable period of time, after lying about his knowledge of what and who David Duke is, and only after his poll numbers dropped due to his intractability in refusing to deny. In short, it's clear that he welcomed their support, and denounced it only when he had to. No he did not enjoy it. See above. But not an equal place. They still trail men in wages for the same jobs, in representation in positions of authority or power (elected office, corporate leaders, etc.). More importantly, Trump has made clear - both in word and deed - that he views women as merely objects and not equals. He appointed those "objects" to his cabinet. Take it as an apology, but he did it. And without tantrums, they have been continuing to provide for society. He is engaging in many of the same practices that are used by anyone that has become, or sought to become, a dictator. The best way to ensure that it never happens in this country is to challenge those practices at every step. For the entirety of the Obama presidency, Republicans protested his position or his legitimacy. Trump has proven to be a liar, a bigot, a misogynist, a sexual predator, and more. Not only is it NOT the time to "sit back", the exact opposite called for.Not in the same way. It was a discussion at the dinner table, or on Twitter, or whatever. I was not a political person whatsoever until people started going crazy, then that's when I stepped in. And if you don't sit back, then I assure you that extreme racists or sexists won't stop until you do sit back. Everything I say is in the bold red text. Seriously? These protests do not help get the message across to their target in a positive manner. Instead, they criminalize people who's opinion differs from theirs, and make the people they're criminalizing go more extremely against them, therefore causing an inevitable race war. Ridiculous how this is still going on.

44 previous presidents have not lost the popular vote but instead were put in place by the Electoral College. Four have. Doesn't matter. Lose the electoral college, lose the election.

Protests, peaceful or violent, only make the racist more racist, and the sexist more sexist, leading to an even greater divide.

My problem with all the protests and people saying they are scared is this: -Trump cannot take away gay marriage. he doesn't want to anyway. -Trump will not deport anyone who is here legally. That includes Muslim and Hispanic citizens. -Trump turned down his KKK endorsement. Can we stop using that as ammo already? -Even if you are here illegally, any deportation program would be slow-moving, and I can guarantee that very little deportations will take place by the time he leaves office. -Women already have a strong place in society. They will continue to. -He is not Hitler. Making comparisons between him and Fascism is completely sickening, because we all know that will never happen to our country. I hated Trump with a passion in the primaries. I wish he wasn't my party's nominee, but he was. He won the election the same way 44 of our previous presidents have. It's time to sit back.

I said a couple of them were bat sh#t crazy, because they truly were. I didn't say everyone. You said some men drove by and flipped them off. The way you phrased it, it sounded like they were "batsh#t crazy" after this occured. I don't know how they reacted but in that scenario getting flipped off woulf piss me the hell off. I guess if they were holding offensive signs that might change things though. If someone flips you off for stating your opinion, you just laugh it off. Not go crazy on them. Why do you think this country is so divided in the first place? Certainly it's not because people go ape sh#t over differing views. Wait, is it? There was a black man there who held up his fist and kept saying "BLACK POWER." I didn't go crazy on him. Sure, if I did I would have probably been mobbed because I was outnumbered 100:1. But I hope you get my point.

I said a couple of them were bat sh#t crazy, because they truly were. I didn't say everyone.

I understand and respect not agreeing with some of the things being supported or protested but I want to focus on that very first statement- a huge opposition to protesting. Do you acknowledge the difference between a peaceful protest and a violent destructive one? I'm just curious if you are opposed to all protests, of any nature, or if it's just the ones that tend towards property destruction and violence. The right to peaceful assembly is one of the pillars of our democracy IMO. That is why I typically take a hard line against groups and people that turn them into non peaceful events. While I disagree with protests of all forms, I do acknowledge their right to happen. Why I am opposed to this, is because this happened due to a presidential election which they can do nothing about. All the "NOT MY PRESIDENT" stuff does nothing. At this point, it's nothing more than a tantrum. I hope everyone here is opposed to violent protesting on either side.

"bat sh#t crazy feminists" "If every liberal would be like that instead of lashing out at everyone who disagreed with them, maybe their message would go across better." Seriously GBR? You wonder why conservatives get accused of being closed minded mysogynists? Look at you, being closed minded towards my views also! Read into what I said further.

All of you know about my huge opposition to protesting, and I disagree with everything they are protesting about. However, aside from breaking traffic laws and a couple of bat sh#t crazy feminists who chose to react to the dudes who flipped them the bird, I must admit the Lincoln one was fairly mild mannered. A couple of women even asked to take pictures with men wearing Trump hats and shook their hand, saying "I feel that we should love you too." If every liberal would be like that instead of lashing out at everyone who disagreed with them, maybe their message would go across better.

The Lincoln one broke a ton of traffic laws. That is the most extreme it got, however. I followed them the entire time. While I disagree with literally everything they said, I kept my mouth shut for the most part.

Riley is dressed like my grandfather.

Try to fork out a sh#t ton of money and hire a known name. If that ends up not being an option, go with Bray.

That's a new one.

He needs to be gone. I don't care how well he recruits if he can't do anything with them.

Somehow knew this would happen. Nobody to blame but him. Hope he gets picked by a needy team like the Texans in the draft.

Still 3 losses? Great.

I watched it with my grandmother. Such a sad life that may not have happened if he wasn't bred in such a hostile environment. From what I gathered, he was a really good guy until he got pissed off. He deserved jail time for what he did, but it is sad that he did all that stuff in the first place.

Yeah, as much as I want to think we'll get him, my hopes are very low on Fozzy. Washington is just way juicier of a deal right now.

2016- Trump. 1/1! Do I get a trophy for being undefeated?

Is the recruiting class in trouble? Could still turn out good but it is looking unlikely. We will prob end up rank wise just about where we have been. Holy sh#t, I'm agreeing with everyone I normally disagree with today. We won't get a top 10 recruiting class. It just ain't happening. We did get a decent class, I will say, and I am excited for the future of recruiting assuming we don't continue to get spanked on national TV.

This is rare. I actually agree with 100% of what you're saying! Embarrassing beatdowns were a yearly occurrence for the Bo squad. I cannot think of one year with a non-humiliating loss under him. Sure, we have had humiliating losses in both years under MR so far. But, he is buying into the Nebraska tradition, something we never saw Pelini do. They are two completely different coaches, and I don't just mean the attitude. You can't just say "SEE?!?!?!?!?!1!?!111ONE!!?! BO WOULD HAVE BEEN GOOD IF WE KEPT HIM!!!!!1" without gauging the fact that he is at home now. He knows Ohio, because he is from there. YSU is a good fit for him, and I was secretly hoping Cincinnati would hire him because I felt he would have been good there. He just was not the right fit for here.

How 'bout when Penn State almost swept us? That wasn't predictable. Nobody saw Creighton in the Elite Eight either. I am very excited. We can definitely keep the crown. We have the talent and coaching. Let's execute like we always do. GBR!

Well, let's count them: 1. Tommy Armstrong (although there he'd be a RB, WR, TE/H-Back, or possibly even a FS/SS). 2. Jordan Westerkamp. 3. Terrell Newby (as a slot receiver). 4. Tanner Farmer. 5. Chris Jones. 6. Josh Kalu. 7. Nate Gerry. Those are 7 players that, in my opinion, would start literally for any other program. Delusional. Seriously? These 7 players are NFL talent at all of the positions he listed. I think Tommy would make a great RB and would not be surprised if he Braxton Miller'd or Denard Robinson'd it in the NFL. Not saying he will but if he sought it out it could very well work out for him. He have future NFL players for sure in at least Westerkamp, Gerry, and Jones. That's not delusional to me Houston you have a problem! lol Thanks!
