The protest started at 6 p.m. with De Niro poking fun at Trump by reading imagined tweets from the president-elect. It was followed by speeches from Moore, Alec Baldwin, New York Mayor Bill De Blasio, Ruffalo and the Rev. Al Sharpton, and others.

...and he is not even President, yet. Can you imagine when he actually becomes commander in chief and begins his campaign of payback of every petty grievance?

but they despise him. They always will. Nothing he can do will ever change that.

It must eat away at him like a corrosive emotional acid.

8. I've got a flash for him. It's not just the people of NYC that despise him.

I'd say that by looking at his latest approval ratings....32% and dropping.....a sizable portion of the U.S. Population thinks he is boob with a bad combover. His faithful followers will stay with him until their noses are rubbed in the sh*t storm created by their dear leader, but the rest of us knew before he even started his run for President what a truly awful person he is. Not fit to shine President Obama's boots. He is going to be sadly disappointed if he thinks we will suddenly start liking him after he takes the oath. If anything, we'll despise him more.
