All tied together. I hate to agree with Trump, especially when it fits the non-PC, but I agree with his first tweet regarding professional protesters. The dangers are enormous to the stability of the country. Indeed, I also fear to the fragile hold Trump has been exercising on restraining his natural bellicosity. I think it's really important he does hold on.
It seems to me there is a concerted effort, fueled by the MSM to keep everything in choas. I'm of the mind that the protesters are going to stay in one form or another through the inauguration-disturbing any festivities. They did the same with Bush, though a bit different form.
On another thread I mentioned that some of the most vocal critics, even #neverTrump folks, may well be the help that the president-elect will need. They have credibility from years of loyalty to the conservative movement, as well as the ability to honestly say they have recognized the flaws, but those do not change what now is now before the country.

We Were Warned of Election-Related Violence, and We’ve Got It by RICH LOWRY November 11, 2016 10:53 AM
One of the more absurd themes of the Left prior to the election was that Trump supporters were ready to unloose a wave of violence on Election Day or after.
This was always a bit rich coming from the same people who never seem to mind too much when BLM protesters run riot. Here was a characteristic example of the genre from Vox.
It was also far-fetched. When have we seen Republican mobs breaking windows and burning things down? Of course, we are now seeing election-related violence, from all the usual suspects:
The latest demonstrations occurred from Portland, Oregon, to Chicago, to New York and parts in between. Many drew several hundred people but some drew thousands.
In Portland, police declared a riot Thursday night, citing “extensive criminal and dangerous behavior” and tweeting that they were getting increasing reports of vandalism and aggressiveness as people marched through the city. They labeled some protesters “anarchists.”
CBS Portland affiliate KOIN-TV reported police put the number at some 4,000.
Marchers were spray-painting buildings, the station said. People were throwing projectiles at officers at one point and significant damage was done at a car dealership, police said. Multiple news outlets posted videos and photos of vehicle windows smashed out….
Things also got ugly in Oakland Thursday night, reports CBS SF Bay Area.
Police declared an unlawful assembly as about 1,000 protesters gathered downtown, that station said. Police said protesters blocked Interstate 580 and at least two were arrested. Tear gas was used for a second straight night, police said.
