Give Trump the chance Obama was first given

I don’t recall back in 2008 when President Obama took office, seeing all the school walk-outs, protests in the streets and signs stating he’s not our president. Those that didn’t vote for Obama stayed quiet and gave the new incoming president a chance to bring his vision of promised change in health care, race relations, national security, foreign policy, immigration reform, jobs and great economy among other things.
When the voting public realized during Obama’s second term that the promised changes were happening but were not all “good” changes, it decided not to continue this type of change and reform and voted for Donald Trump instead of Hillary Clinton.
Now to all those protesters, flag burners, discontents and especially the ”Hollywood Elite” who promised to move out of the U.S.A. if Trump was elected: There are a lot of fellow citizens including myself who would help “Those Elite” move out of this country. To the rest of you upset with the election outcome, give President-elect Trump the same chance to make positive changes in this country as was given to President Obama.
