It has been over two weeks now since
the election of Donald J. Trump as the 45th President of the United
States. But you wouldn’t think so watching the national news. Following the
election results liberals went ballistic! The so-called “millennia’s” attending
some of the most expensive universities in the country (mostly at parents
expense), found it necessary to take shelter in cry rooms, drinking hot
chocolate, scribbling in color books and seeking the help of counselors.
On
top of that many “professors” told students affected by emotional trauma as a
result of the election that they need not have to take part in school tests.
Apparently the only thing missing on college campuses were free pacifiers. Boy
does higher education pay off or not?
But
the disappointment of Trump’s election wasn’t restricted to college students.
The streets of such cities as New York, Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles,
and many others was littered by anarchists who felt it was their duty, right
and responsibility to destroy other people’s property. Businesses of every
stripe felt the ire of these recalcitrant’s who roamed about smashing windows,
burning and destroying cars, beating anyone who got in their way and stealing
goods from stores—all in the name of personal freedom!
Many
of these folks say they have a right to protest the election since Hillary
Clinton apparently won the popular vote. But when these votes are tallied it
appears they all came from heavily dominated regions as Southern California,
New York, San Francisco, Seattle, New Jersey and Chicago. All of these cities
have huge populations who traditionally vote liberal.
As
a result of this these folks scream that it is time to abolish the Electoral
College. They say that it is the popular vote that should decide any presidential
election. But when you look at a map of the United States it becomes apparent
that these areas supporting such an idea represent only a small part of the
nation. If the Electoral College was to be replaced by a popular vote then that
would be the end of any conservative opposition. The United States would be a
one party government and you know where that would lead to—dictatorship!
States
as North and South Dakota, New Hampshire, Kansas, Nebraska, Utah, Idaho, New
Mexico, Arizona, Delaware and other small states would have no voice in any
national election. Only the liberal elites would have the say as to who is
elected.
Can
you imagine Hollywood being the new capital of the United States? Very likely
it could be if our voting system were to be changed to popular vote.
When
looking at the states that voted conservative (Trump) you see a mass of red
with nearly all of the west coast including California, Oregon and Washington
State in blue. But when you look at the counties of these states you see a
remarkable change. In California only the large cities represent blue, the
eastern and northern part of the state is all red. You will find the same thing
in Oregon and Washington State.
The
question then becomes is it only the largest populations that has the say as to
who has the right to govern?
In
addition to this is the lack of participation of citizens. It is recorded that
only about half of the American population who has the right to vote actually
votes. The reason may be that they are simply disgusted with politicians and government
in general. You hear complaints about too much government intervention in
people’s lives and too many restrictions and too many silly laws. But these
same people dodge their personal responsibility to vote for better government.
It’s easier to complain and place the blame on the other guy!
It is interesting to note
that those who took to the streets to burn, destroy and intimidate innocent
people were either not registered to vote or didn’t bother to cast a ballot.
Yet these same bullies wave their protest signs, yell slogans and march down
public streets and highways spouting their venom and interfering with law
abiding citizens.
And anyone who complains
that law enforcement isn’t doing its job then it should be pointed out that
during the year of 2016 some 120 police officers were killed in the line of
duty. That adds up to two policemen or women died each week of the year!
In addition to this some
college students don’t want any police person on their campus. Not a bad idea—until
you need a cop!
By December 8, the Electoral
College will meet and cast their votes for the next President of the United
States. Don’t be surprised if the liberals don’t make a bid to interfere. Those
electoral representatives are bound to their states decision and if they abide
by their obligation then Donald J. Trump will take office on January 20, 2017.
Following his swearing in perhaps the thumb suckers, thugs and those who have been looking to the sky to see if it actually is falling, will come to their senses and get behind a man who loves our country and wants to make it great again.
