I Hate Politics

So I was legitimately sick at the news this morning...

Pray for the world, pray that he is educable! You are young enough to live through the damages that may occur in the he next 4 years, I may not. I pray for all of the young people of the world. Between Brexit and now Trump we are headed back to our xenophobic, isolationalistic past which caused wars and famine for centuries.

I don't want to get into a heated political discussion, but one person's definition of a democracy may not be the same as someone else's. I do understand, and predicted, the outcome of this election many months ago. I realized how angry large portions of the population were about their state of affairs, their feeling that they have been left behind. I also know of the tremendous anger, I would almost call it hatred, that people had/have for Ms. Clinton. There was no talking to them about it, they really couldn't explain it. So I knew her election was doomed.

Now that the election is finally behind us, I do hope that we can heal the wounds that developed because of the vitriol from both sides. I also hope that we do not head into an undemocratic society of bullies who get their way simply by bullying those below them. I truly hope mr. trump meant what he said in his victory speech, that he looks forward to an open government!

@LesDeplorable: By true democracy you mean my community's rights being at risk yet again? Having a man who is against my sexuality? My gender? Having a man who is for the deportation of immigrants and is racist and pro-rape? Yeah, because that's what politics is all about.
