Forgive me. I'm going to take another turn at bat. I misread the question and responded inappropriately. The question is "What's the biggest change you have noticed with TRUMP since [the] election?" Donald is becoming a politician, more reserved and circumspect in his language. I'm not surprised. He has always evinced a great ability to learn. Donald became a billionaire by learning from his mistakes and transforming himself into a brand that attracted investors. Regardless of whether he succeeded or failed in any one project, his brand was never tarnished and he continued to succeed. When he became an entertainment personality, he learned from his mistakes and developed an entertaining persona, one that people liked to watch. Now we see the same thing happening. He blew away his competition in the primaries by giving voice to the anger of the people while his opponents played politics as usual. Then, in the general election we saw his demeanor morph into something a little more circumspect. His acceptance of the victory was positively Presidential. The Donald we first saw at the beginning of the primary season would have been whooping and bragging about the win. This Donald thanked his family and staff humbly and was gracious to the opposition. Anyone not surprised by that? His demeanor on meeting the President at the White House was far more Presidential than President Obama. Were you surprised? I was. Then again, I wasn't. I expected this change based on past experience. I guess I was just surprised by the swiftness and degree of change.

Good stuff, Sir! While I did not support either of the main contenders in this election, let's wish Mr. Trump the best. He's the one 'at the wheel' of the ship we're all on.

I too, voted third party. Though I've told others that a Trump Presidency could be our nation hitting "rock-bottom" and be a "wake-up call". I wish All of us the best. One person, whether he is Obama, Trump, Hitler, or Gandhi are not solely responsible for our fates

The rise of childish petulance. When President Obama was first elected, I had misgivings. I could see no discernible qualifications in the man to be President. Still, I wished him well. I prayed for him as I had prayed for the success of every President, Republican and Democrat, since Harry Truman. Wishing ill on the President is like cursing the pilot of the airplane in which you're a passenger. At least, I expected, his election would put a punctuation mark at the end of the era of racial inequality and unrest. Sadly, he exacerbated every incident by jumping into each racial fray injudiciously and stirring the pot. Why? I have no clue. Still, at least I gave him a chance. I didn't criticize until he began denigrating the Constitution in word and deed. I wish that Americans would now give President-Elect Trump a chance. Sadly, I foresee no "honeymoon" for our new President. Even the GOP members of Congress are closing ranks against him. Hopefully We the People will realize that in doing this, Congress is closing ranks against us and vote them out in the next mid-term elections. We won a great victory, not for Trump, but against the Progressive Movement and we will win the war with other victories in the next mid-term election.

People are more outraged that I've ever seen after an election; crying, screaming, rioting, cheering. It's like the season finale of Walking Dead or Survivor.

No, not really because it's showing our true colors as to what we think about each other. We are suppose to rally together and even though there are differences we need to remain together as a whole.
People are just being big babies about this entire thing; emotionally outraged, crying and sobbing on television, beating up people to get noticed, killing others because they voted for the opposite party, ending life-ling friendships, allowing social media to dictate what we should see and hear rather than finding out the real truth. We are becoming lazy, relying on the ity bity tablets, phones and iwatches to do our thinking for us and brainwash us into thinking the right is wrong and the wrong is right.
I thought I got out of high school 12 years ago; guess I'm still the one sitting on the stage, watching the chaos ensue around me.

And the ones you see are our young people,just because their candidate didn't win and these are our future. Well like a law professor said " suck it up butter cup". You didn't see these acts when Obama got elected, that's the progressive left for you since they didn't win they are taking their ball and going home
