I saw that tweet, but also saw that many of the protests are being organized by the George Soros backed, MoveOn.org.

That's George Soros the billionaire backer of Hillary Clinton and also someone in opposition to Trump's anti-globalist agenda.

I have no doubt many of the protestors are genuinely protesting against what they believe Trump will mean for the nation. However I do also question the motives of people stirring that up, especially when protests become violent and cause damage to people and property.

> Trump has to be the one to work toward unity, to reach out to the groups he has inarguably alienated.

I agree and I think he made overtures to this in his acceptance speech. He does need people to meet him at the discussion table though, and violent protests, and burning effigies of Trump don't help achieve that aim.
