Ignore the media and let’s take an honest look at the debacle which occurred on November 8th. Hillary Clinton had the support of every respectable newspaper in the nation. In addition, she had the support of many respectable Republicans across the nation. She was lauded by most of our military and intelligence officials. She stood for issues which would positively affect the American people. She promised to work across the aisle to return democracy to our nation. She gave 40 years to our nation in service of the American people, and served as First Lady, a United States Senator, and as Secretary of State. She was the most qualified presidential candidate in our nation’s history.
Her opponent had never served the American people in any way, or sacrificed a single thing for our nation. He was a draft dodger, and an opportunist while hundreds of thousands of less wealthy men and women served their country. He only served himself and his ambitions. He was a criminal who admittedly bribed public officials, used contributions to his own foundation for personal benefit, operated a modeling agency which violated immigration laws, was revealed as a sexist who viewed women as objects for physical pleasure, proved himself to be a white supremacist, and was accused of being a sexual predator. He became our 45th president. Is something wrong with this picture?
I have often claimed that the American people are the least informed and most ignorant voters in the world; my allegation has now been proven to be fact, and we must blame the media for protecting the worst of America.
Millions of Americans do not care about our nation’s future, and obviously the future of their families and friends.
Make no mistake about it; Trump had enormous assistance from the mainstream media. They allowed Trump to be heard five times more frequently than any other candidate since June of 2015. They gave him more latitude with outrageous and un-American rhetoric than all other candidates combined. Hillary Clinton was forced to constantly defend herself, while Trump was given a free pass. Her stance on the issues was never mentioned by the television networks. At the same time they complained about the campaign season which they claimed to lack substance. They were all hypocrites.
Add to this Russian influence and the unprecedented interference in the election process by James Comey, and the combined effort of outside forces, linked with the ignorance and anger of Trump supporters, and we are now forced to accept an immoral man as our nation’s leader. No we’re not.
I join millions of protesters who will never call Trump an American president; he does not qualify for that label.
The American people who elected him will pay, and pay dearly. The United States of our founding fathers no longer exists. We have become an oligarchy, which will soon be a plutocracy.
Say good-bye to a nation which might have become great.
Please re-post and support the revolution.
