While Donald Trump won't be sworn in until January 20, we're already seeing the worst of what could happen.
After winning the election, violence came alive in a very real and scary way across the country. Many minorities are facing the harsh brunt of racist and prejudice actions. People are taking to social media to discuss what Day 1 in Trump's America looked like for them.
From blackface to full-on assault, here are some of the worst things that happened on November 9.
