President-elect Donald Trump’s Twitter feed is already contradicting itself.
On Thursday evening, he complained that the people protesting the results of the presidential election were “very unfair,” but early Friday morning he tweeted that he loved their “passion” for the country.
What’s he talking about? Decide for yourself.

Protests erupted in major cities across the country earlier this week when Trump unexpectedly beat Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton with a total of 290 Electoral College votes, compared to Clinton’s 228.
Protests have occurred in cities including New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago and Portland, where police publicly declared a “riot” due to “extensive criminal and dangerous behavior” and called the protest “unlawful.”
Police have deployed less lethal munitions such as OC spray and vapor (pepper spray), rubber ball distraction devices, rubber baton rounds.
