More students gathered on campus in Oregon to protest Trump’s presidency.

Freshman student Margaret Gibson told The Tab Oregon: “I’m fucking terrified of this whole thing. The mission is to raise support that Donald Trump cannot be our president.

“I think the whole point of this protest is to get awareness that Donald Trump just won. The whole world as we know it for minorities will be uprooted and destroyed as well as our whole economic system and morals being exposed to the world in such a bad way.”
