I don't think Trump is that popular. It's just that Hillary was that terrible.
As far as Obama himself, the Reps threw just as much of a hissy fit the last 8 years the the Dems seem to be now. It's just that instead of Texas seceding it's California.
Thanks Obama.
There weren't riots from Republicans when Obama won. There weren't really protests either. This is some crybaby bullshit from regressive children.
