It won't do a damned bit of good, but, neither will Trumps acting like a 7th grade schoolyard bully. If he even came CLOSE to acting Presidential I would expect the number to go down by at least half. Since he is becoming an embarrassment to the country, and a danger to the world, I can't really blame those who protest. We DID expect to elect a President, no matter which side you were on. I'm kind of surprised there are not more from the right that are protesting his behavior. This "Tweeter-in-Chief" seems more a candidate for a looney bin than a President! He is endangering America! I would boycott him also! I have always accepted election results even if I didn't like the winner. Sometimes I got to like the one I didn't. I don't see that happening here! Every morning I check out his juvenile rantings and I can't believe them!

I, like most Democrats, except the loss, unquestionably. What we DO NOT accept is a juvenile liar and conceited ass as President. If he at least acted Presidential, didn't scare the hell out of U.S. and the rest of the world, cared about those "people" called "Americans", would stop alienating our friends and allies, would stop hating anyone who disagrees with him, would admit HE tried as hard as anyone to de-legitimize Obama when HE was elected, etc.,etc., his favorability ratings might be higher because WE would have some HOPE, WE could respect him, (at least until he screws up badly ....I have little doubt that he will), but, even with Bush I had HOPE ... until he screwed up badly!

Hey, Outlaw60, I ACCEPT THE LOSS! I have trouble accepting what we seem to have lost TO! A raving, conceited, idiot!

I think all Democrats and perverts should completely boycott Washington DC. They should all move to L.A or Gnawlins and have pervert pride parties protesting Republicans in Govt. Maybe they'll wreak enough havoc so that the national guard will have to mow them all down.

I think they should boycott, but if they decide not to boycott they should makes as much noise as possible, raise a big fuss, maybe have some multi-neon colored hair clowns dressed like outer space tramps chanting "not my president", and have a bunch of people roll around on the floor feeling sick trying to deal with the emotional trauma of Hillary getting her evil tail ran out of the race.

Yes, all Hollywood clowns, Democrats, Black hives matter, LGBT should boycott the Inauguration. That would be nice.

Especially that idiot who is supposed to be praised for saying stupid things just because he went through racial attacks a few decades ago.

I would go for neutral if there was an option.

You should do whatever you want. If you don't like Trump, then by all means, boycott it... Equally if you support him watch it!

People shouldn't feel like they're obligated to boycott it. Clinton supporters/anti-Trumpers shouldn't be shamed for wanting to watch it.

... uh, sorry, but where did I threaten anyone?

All I said was that people should have the freedom to do what they want. Can you not read?

It's a free country and people can vote with their feet if they want to. But we have elections for a reason. And even if you disagree with the result of the election you still have to participate in the republic you helped to build. When conservatives objected strongly to Obama it didn't stop the majority of them from still coming to inauguration or showing up for other parts of government. Granted they obstructed every time they got the chance, but they didn't pull a South Park "screw you guys, I'm going home". The liberals and moderates of this country should do the same - show up and be a part of it. If you can legally and legimately oppose then that's fine. That's politics. But don't just go home and stew about it while watching it live on TV.

Boycotting isn't going to do anything. The people have chosen Trump, for whatever reason, be it their tired of the political horse crap that seems to be the norm, or they want someone who they believe "tells it like it is". Whatever. There are two things that has been said that stick out in my mind. The first is "wanting Trump to fail is like wanting the plane you're on to crash" (I can't recall who said it) and the other is by...Colbert...I think.... "He's the President now, support him when he's right and bring him down when he's wrong."

Conservatives didn't "get over it" when Obama was elected. Many didn't go to the inauguration, they, instead, went to a secret dinner and meeting to agree that they would do anything to "make him fail" and to be a "one term President". Those "whiney-butts" needed to get over it .. they NEVER DID! One of the most out spoken of them was Donald (birther) Trump! President Trump, get used to it! You ASKED for it! I'm sure, when you anoint yourself KING, with your Queen and all the Princes and Princesses, you will be able to "control" those who tell the truth about you, control the "lying media" and have a nice dinner with Vlad every week! You wont NEED a "secret army", like you said Obama had!

It won't be America, though.

Re: "instead, went to a secret dinner and meeting to agree that they would do anything to "make him fail" and to be a "one term President".

Was that the one where the had the "White man keeping Black man under their thumb" meeting, too?

Don't forget, the original birther was Hillary's camp which was based on Obama's Harvard bio. I'm just curious, when did Obama correct the error in his bio?

I'm sure many on the right didn't attend for various reasons, but there was no organized protest boycotting the inauguration by congressional members of the right. Remember, John Lewis started the verbal jousting and now wants to be a victim of Trump's response. Boo hoo, Baby.

The MSM is working overtime to make Vlad and Trump bossum bodies and you're taking it hook, line and sinker. You are a good minion.
