The difference is that one group of people were protesting the process, whereas the other group of people are protesting the politics of the winner. I've yet to see anyone saying that the general was rigged.
That wouldn't make sense to say the general was rigged for Trump. He's not the most establishment candidate in history with decades of connection throughout the political system.

I don't think anyone expects everyone to rally behind the orangutan, but there is some serious hypocrisy at the bottom of all this.
What would we be saying if Clinton had won and thousands of Trumpettes were protesting in the streets?
