The time is 12:17 P.M.
I’m looking at my phone and I have a notification from CNN proclaiming:
“New CNN/ORC poll shows a 2016 dead heat among likely voter; Trump 45% and Clinton 43%”
How has it come to this? It is now September 7th, the general election is two months away…a year ago Trump’s candidacy was a still seen as a joke, and frankly it still is. This man is getting closer and closer to the White House with each passing day.
For the first time in this election cycle, I am afraid. If this man gets into office America will surely not be great, it will be hell on earth.
I put my faith now in the American people, not the Democratic Party, nor the Republican Party. I put my faith into the Constitutional Rights given to us via the Bill of Rights. We THE PEOPLE are the only ones strong enough to defeat this fascist bigot.
The Democratic Party rigged an election in order to get HRC to where she is currently(and by that CNN ticker update it looks like a terrible position). The Republican Party has imploded and is bleeding out on the National stage.
What are we to do? Yes, you will say: vote! And I will, but what happens when I vote, and Trump(god forbid, because now we have to seriously consider this) wins? What then?
We are at a crossroads, on one side there is hope, happiness and light; on the other: death, destruction and chaos. Vote with altruism this November. Vote not for yourself, but vote for your children, for your neighbor, for those who have less than you do. Vote with love and compassion, for surely if the adverse outcome occurs there will have to be a reckoning.
