Those were local issues with local decision making. I'm not sure what protesting a newly elected president in the abstract is going to achieve. He's not resigning. The moment he tried to pass something heinous, protesting in DC or around federal institutions would make more sense of course.

I read through this thread and I just really want to know an answer to this question. What is this going to achieve, other than showing that you dislike the results of a public election? It isn't like the government will suddenly block Trump from becoming President just because some people didn't like the results of the election.

In fact, this seems to weaken the ability for protesters to make a point. He hasn't even taken office yet, and people are launching prejudiced protests against him for his role in hypothetical situations.
