I'm sure the Breitbart gremlin will be Secretary of Information. Yes, the demonstrations are amazing.

But what about Ted Slimy Cruz? What position does he get?

He didn't kiss the ring enough. He'll probably get Secretary of Toilet Scrubbing. It is being floated that he would be nominated for the Supreme Court in a Trump presidency.
Or we'll see what he gets next time he's up for election.

I am unsure what the productive purpose of such demonstrations are.

It is always interesting how people who claim they are opposed to people who are intolerant are so intolerant themselves to others with different opinions. Having lived in the Bay Area saw this quite a lot.

Re: 2016 Election
Well, after the markets accepted the reality that Trump is the President-elect, the Dow futures which had fallen 800 points last night reversed and the Dow ended up 256.95, the NASDAQ 57.59 and the S&P 23.70 - each of them up more than 1%. So did you actually lose hundreds of thousands today? I'm hoping not. Actually, if Trump's economic policies get through Congress we could see GDP growth within 18 months of between 3 - 4%, which should help your retirement accounts.

Re: 2016 Election
About what ?
Are you saying the people protesting are tolerant of people who have different views ? I remember living in Bay Area the intolerance of so many of anyone didn't have a PC vision of the world, so protests there just remind me of that intolerance.
Or students I hired from UC Berkley who told me that in class they had to be very careful what they said in class if it different from a leftist point of view. Hardly a university known for being open-minded towards different points of view.
