In just two days, Donald Trump will be sworn in as the 45th President of the United States. While Trump is getting ready to celebrate, there has been growing backlash against him, much to the chagrin of his supporters, including conservative firebrand and social media sensation, Tomi Lahren.
Lahren on Trump
Heading into the 2016 presidential election, the consensus was that Hillary Clinton would break the glass ceiling and become the first female commander in chief in American history. When Donald Trump became the Republican nominee, it appeared that Clinton's life-long dream was a lock to take place.
However, to the surprise of most of the world, Trump pulled off the monumental upset and is now the president-elect. Over 100,000 protesters are planning to voice their opposition in Washington, D.C. on Inauguration Day, with other demonstrations taking place in various cities. As seen on The Blaze TV and her Facebook page on January 18, Tomi Lahren was not pleased.
"So I hear there are some snowflakes, I mean Democrats, planning to boycott the inauguration, something like 50 or more," Tomi Lahren said to open her "Final Thoughts" segment. Lahren went on to say she was actually happy that Democrats would be boycotting the inauguration because it would help cut costs, while dropping the slogan "winning," out of the Charlie Sheen playbook.
After bragging about how great the Donald Trump's win was, repeating the "winning" slogan on more than once occasion, Lahren then went on to point out that "it will be easier for folks to see the event without the inflated heads, egos, and high-horses of these tired and out-of-touch politicians blocking our view."
Tomi Lahren moved forward, accusing critics of Donald Trump of ignoring reality, claiming they live "in a land of unicorn promises, free college, free healthcare and free abortions." "Reality has never been their cup of tea," Lahren stated.

"Denouncing the incoming president is not a social-justice moment," Tomi Lahren said, explaining, "it's a crybaby moment, and I don’t care who you are." The popular right-wing social media commentator then went on to warn liberals and Democrats to "get comfortable being uncomfortable," while closing by saying Trump will "Make America Great Again."
Moving forward
Despite the outrage by Tomi Lahren and other supporters of Donald Trump, the opposition to the billionaire real estate mogul is growing at a record rate.
According to the most recent Gallup Poll, Trump has the lowest incoming favorability rating for a president in the history of the survey, with only 40 percent of Americans giving the president-elect positive marks.
