On Thursday morning, "We Can't Just Get Along" was trending on Twitter, a reference to a fiery column from Charles M. Blow of the New York Timesabout President-elect Donald Trump. It wasn't exactly a peace offering.

"You are an aberration and abomination who is willing to do and say anything — no matter whom it aligns you with and whom it hurts — to satisfy your ambitions," he wrote.

"I don’t believe you care much at all about this country or your party or the American people. I believe that the only thing you care about is self-aggrandizement and self-enrichment."

Trump met with the Timeson Tuesday and struck a somewhat civil tone. Blow, however, slammed Trump as hypocritical for his attacks on Hillary over deleting emails, corruption, and conflict of interest.

It ended with this statement:

"No, Mr. Trump, we will not all just get along. For as long as a threat to the state is the head of state, all citizens of good faith and national fidelity — and certainly this columnist — have an absolute obligation to meet you and your agenda with resistance at every turn. I know this in my bones, and for that I am thankful."

The vast majority of people tweeting about the story (at least 24,000, according to Twitter) were enthusiastic about it. Some conservatives, obviously, were not so happy about the message.

Get ready for a fun holiday season, America.
