TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - One week after the historical election that lead to Donald Trump's election, protests keep growing.

We were joined by our political contributors Dr. Richard Murgo and Dr. Ed Moore to break it all down.

They speculated whether or not the hate crimes were tied to Donald Trump's win, how the hate crimes now compare to election result disagreements in the past, and whether or not the protesting was to be expected after his election.
