What's this?

Only they were protesting a positive message and an effort to expand access

to healthcare. That's the difference -- the people outraged at Trump are shocked that such an offensive, awful person is our president and that is first orders of business were to try and ban a religion from entering the country and build a wall to keep out Mexicans. Or, in the case of the women's march, that he generally views women as disposable f**k toys.

A bit different from being angry that a black guy with a powerful message is president and he is actually moving the needle in the right direction, which was what the Tea Bagger crap was all about.
