The Trump campaign was full of hateful rhetoric. THAT rhetoric has scared the "losers" who are poor, middle class, and rich, weak people wo voted for HIllary Clinton. Are they all on Trump's revenge list? Even today Trump's surrogates say Trump has a long memory so we are afraid he will come for us.
Regular people, Blacks, Mexicans, immigrants, and women have not seen the father figure Trump daughter Ivanka said she knows. Hillary Clinton voters have not seen the "nice guy" that Bill Belichick describes.
We believe Trump is who he says he is, not who others claim he is, so many of us have good reason to fear him as an unstable, irritable, and perhaps violent person.
("Bill Belichick addresses Donald Trump letter but is now 'on to Seattle'"

""I think anybody that has spent more than five minutes with me knows I'm not a political person. My comments are not politically motivated -- the friendship and loyalty to Donald. A couple of weeks ago, we had Secretary of State [John] Kerry in our locker room [after a win over the Pittsburgh Steelers]. He's another friend of mine. I can't imagine two people with more different political views than those two. But to me, friendship and loyalty is just about that. It's not about political or religious views."I write hundreds of letters and notes every month," Belichick said. "It doesn't mean I agree with every single thing that every person thinks about politics or religion or other subjects. But I have multiple friendships that are important to me, and that's what that was about. So it's not about politics. It's about football. We have a huge game this week against a great football team, a great organization, and that's where it all is going forward. On to Seattle.""
Thanks Bill. Of course, you have nothing to fear, so pat the Trump on the back as a "friend." Bill Belichick's statement that he is not political and this letter to Trump AT THIS MOMENT in a heated POLITUICA race is incredibly f**king disingenuous.
Why publicly praise Trump in a letter at this moment? Can't you wait till Christmas to give him this gift?
Bill Belichick's statement is a lie. A LIE. I cannot believe the letter was not a politically motivated action because Trump is running for the President of the United States and Bill knows it. Bill knows many people will follow his lead.
Many of us have good reasons to be afraid of President elect Donald Trump, and he has not done enough in three days to calm our fears.
International news sees we are troubled as a nation.
Donald Trump backlash begins with protests against US election result across America - as President-elect prepares to meet Barack Obama
Galatians 6:7 is the legacy of Donald Trump's ugly, divisive campaign.
The American's supporting Hillary Clinton assumed she was going to win. You did not vote? In part, your inaction helped elect Donald Trump. So if any of you non-voters are in the streets protesting, go home. You have not earned the right to protest.
President elect, please disown MISOGYNY, and apologize to American women. I said that, yes, APOLOGIZE, man up to reality, and disown toxic masculinity. You are the President, not a predator. Tell them you wash your hands of your locker room thoughts (intentionally "thoughts"). What we say, we think, MOST times.
Some American women obviously do not fear your misogyny, real as it is, but those protesting are scared to death of you, and your males surrogates, Juiliani and Gingrich especially.
Dear President Elect Donald Trump: Please do NOT appoint Gingrich as Secretary of State, or "Rude" Juiliani as Attorney General.
Hiring them would be like you want a MISOGINIST EMPIRE! Women fear these kind of men. Do not support toxic masculinity.
They were the meanest, nastiest characters that served as your surrogates, THEY are not trusted or liked by the American people, which is why they have been invisible for YEARS to America.
I acknowledged they may have helped you and deserve a reward. Write them a check, but please do not put such mean, nasty people in your "regime."
The protests will not end if Gingrich or Juiliani hold any government office for you.
Secretary of State Gingrich? Close friends and allies of the president-elect are poised to take power.

Also, your VP, Mr. Pence is another "add on" that many Americans fear. Gay Americans, lesbian Americans, transgender Americans, and anyone who is not inclined to Pence's misguided, so-called "religious," bible verse cherry picking beliefs fear Pence.
Here’s What Mike Pence Said on LGBT Issues Over the Years

"In a speech opposing gay marriage, Pence said "societal collapse was always brought about following an advent of the deterioration of marriage and family.""
"
Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, Donald Trump’s running mate, attracted national attention last year when he signed a religious freedom law that members of the LGBT community said could worsen discrimination against them.
After criticism from the business community, Pence signed an amendment to the law intended to protect gays and lesbians.
But it was not his first brush with criticism from the LGBT community. A self-described “Christian, a conservative and a Republican, in that order,” the former member of Congress was a prominent conservative figure in battles over marriage equality and equal rights in the last decade."
Mike Pence might still believe, or put his hopes in "Conversion Therapy"
Maybe he also wants to try electric shock, or a lobotomy, or as England once tried, chemical castration. Why not really f**k up the "Gays" Mike?
Mike has a bible verse against "Gay" humans. But he came to his senses, I hope. Maybe by reading and studying the bible or just realizing that the cruelty against gay people is just wrong.
Read this balanced discussion that does not try to find ways to be cruel to our brothers and sisters. Please don't stop reading as soon as you find a way to justify limiting the human and legal rights of GBLTs.
The question is this: "Is there any Biblical basis for hating homosexuals? [closed]"

True: Mike Pence advocated for 'conversion therapy'

"Trump’s choice for running mate during a speech at the Democratic National Convention this week. Newsom, a prominent LGBTQ rights supporter, said Republican Indiana Gov. Mike Pence "advocated for diverting taxpayer dollars to so-called conversion therapy."
Conversion therapy is a controversial practice that seeks to change a person’s sexual orientation from gay to straight. It’s banned in five states including California, Oregon, Illinois, Vermont and New Jersey.
When asked about the claim, Newsom’s spokesman pointed to Pence’s own words. During his first successful run for Congress in 2000, Pence wrote on his campaign website, under a section called Strengthening the American Family:
"Resources should be directed toward those institutions which provide assistance to those seeking to change their sexual behavior."
Also on the website, Pence wrote: "Congress should oppose any effort to put gay and lesbian relationships on an equal legal status with heterosexual marriage." And "Congress should oppose any effort to recognize homosexual’s [sic] as a 'discreet [sic] and insular minority' entitled to the protection of anti-discrimination laws similar to those extended to women and ethnic minorities."
Our research found no evidence Pence has walked back his stance on public funding for conversion therapy. His spokesman did not respond with information about Pence’s current position
Pence keeps changing his mind, of course . . . probably to get votes like any politician would.
Trump-Pence Presidency Would Be a Disaster for LGBT People
Think LGBT issues aren’t at stake in this election? Think again.

"Of course, there have always been gay Republicans—mostly wealthy, white gay men—and they’ve always had the same basic point of view: that while they disagree with the GOP on gay issues, they agree on a whole lot of other things, and those other things are more important. Peter Thiel, who just announced a $1.25 million donation to the Trump campaign, is just the latest, libertarian-ish version."
