We didn't see tis type of hyperbolic-stir-the-pot reporting when Obama was elected.  
We didn't see rioting in the streets.
We didn't see a Bolshevist U.S. Senator introducing legislation to remove the Electoral College.
We didn't see the snowflake demographic suddenly feeling "unsafe" 

All this from "progressives" billing themselves (ad nauseam) to be the the party of compromise and inclusion. 
As the old saying goes:  Actions speak louder than words.
