This may be one of the most (bizarre) significant elections of all time for America.
The two major parties have both put forward "controversial" figures.
One is a man, one is a woman.
One is a lawyer turned politician, one is a business man not familiar with the ins and outs of politics.
One has disappointed the majority of the American people publicly, the other has disappointed the minority of American people privately.
Both are vying for every single person in America's VOTE.
...........AND THEN..........
There's the two other options- Libertarian Gary Johnson and Green Party Jill Stein.
Oh wait, you're an American and didn't know you had other options?
Oh wait, you are a foreigner and didn't know we had other options? (As you've been scoffing at us and feeling bad for us having to choose the lesser of two evils...)
Do you know what I'm tired of?
-Mudslinging
- going after the "little guys", minorities, and groups of people you have nothing in common with and do not even like
-media bias
-internet trolls
-That bitch's condescending smile
- That terrible fake tan (he's not that orange but damn do TV cameras make it worse)
-hearing everything everyone has dug up
-hearing normal people shut down other normal people's opinions and beliefs in the nastiest ways possible
-THIS ELECTION
By tomorrow morning we will have a new leader. there's no stopping it. And for the record, everyone is thinking that Donald Trump is a complainer because he thinks the election and the system is rigged, but if we all understood the election process better we would realize he's kinda right. After we go and vote, and the outcome comes out to 42% HC and 48% DT, there are people who get to make the decision about HOW THE STATE VOTES. They are supposed to take into account the majority and then cast their vote. the Electoral college is supposed to take in what the public wants and cast it's vote accordingly. BUT THEY DON'T HAVE TO. When the #s are so close, they get to decide. Their vote becomes our vote. That is how a mostly Democratic state ends up voting Republican or vice versa. He is not 100% wrong- we are all(including him) just not that educated on how our voting system actually works. Very interesting. And while I may have realized this months ago, there are still people blindly going to the polls not knowing this.
I don't want to hear tomorrow when Donald Trump is confused that people think he's a whiner. I want them to see it as it really is- a learning experience for him and the rest of us. To learn more about the government that represents you, how it is elected, how it is run, and how it is or IS NOT meeting our needs- so that we can be proactive and change it if we need to.
