I reject any attempt at accepting this presidency. I reject the notion that he should be given a chance - fascists do not get any chances in my book (the results of a chance are all too clear throughout history). There is only one position that makes sense to me and that is in staunch and direct opposition to the legitimacy of this government (Clinton has, at last count, over 1 million votes more than Trump). Trump and his gang ran on deception, lies, false promises, bigotry (in all of its forms), misogyny, etc., and that, in and of itself, delegitimizes this election. Too many people around the world (and in this country) have lost their lives to defeat the ideas that he used to get himself elected, ideas that he has now given a seat to in the White House.
No, there can be no reprieve. There can be no acceptance. There can be no - wait and see. Too many tyrants have remained in power because of complacency and "being nice". Authoritarians only understand strength so it is with strength that they must be opposed.
