Alt-right leader Richard Spen- cer recently proclaimed “hail Trump, hail our people” to a packed room in Washington, D.C. It was received with some fellow white nationalis­ts giving the Nazi salute. It’s time to stand up for America and its people. If liberals don’t like it, they can leave the country. Lynn Russell

Apparently when you drain a swamp, the scum floats to the top ... and has a party. Kevin Hays

Funny, there have been blacks who’ve been calling for the death of cops for over a year now, while Islamic extremists profess they will kill us, and the news media almost never highlight. But 200 white guys meet in a room in D.C. and say they want to peacefully take back the nation “we built” and you’d swear they resurrecte­d Hitler! Lance Cole

Congrats, red state voters. This is now part of your legacy as well. Edward Colon

We asked our followers what President-elect Donald Trump should do to ease racial tensions in the U.S. The tension’s a symptom of the illness. Unite the U.S. to identify and target the many root causes of systemic inequality. @DavidWJone­s2016 Trump can’t do anything. Hillary Clinton couldn’t either. President Obama didn’t ease racial tensions. Why do we expect politician­s to do so much? @BittmanSki­p Reconsider appointing Stephen Bannon (hate-monger) and Michael Flynn (antiMuslim-fear-monger). Jeff Sessions too, even though he has to be confirmed. @NelsonKano­a 1. Quit putting down others to build someone else up. 2. Quit Twitter. 3. Quit divisive tactics. @WyomingMan­dyJ How about our current president first? How many riots have there been the last three years? President Obama has done very little. @wifflewaff­el For more, follow @USATOpinio­n or #tellusatod­ay.
