This election season has had all sorts of crazy things said on both sides of the aisle, but one man in particular has a certain je ne sais quoi for saying outlandish and often very offensive things.
Yes we all know who I’m talking about here, and I will admit there’s a part of me who cannot wait until the next time a certain moldy garbage can opens his mouth, simply so I can first be disgusted and then proceed to laugh at how incredibly stupid he is.
The one and only Donald J. Trump. For some strange reason he has a sort of cult following, and no this isn’t like a film or book cult following, this is more torches, pitchforks, and the hooded robes that shouldn’t be worn after Labor Day.
But despite all of this the man still doesn’t slow down and is becoming more and more terrifying every single day, with more and more followers and more and more hate around every corner.
Just the other day I saw a video of someone jumping the gate at a Trump rally in order to get to the microphone. The Trump supporters in the crowd were simply not having it. I will admit that in that moment yes, that would have been scary and yes acting in a surprised manner is expected. But instead of surprise and shock, the supporters acted out in pure hate and violence.
As soon as the man was apprehended, the crowd started throwing out curses and threats. One of the things that made me sick to my stomach was the chanting that he should be killed right there, right in that moment. Without even thinking the people who support Trump were asking, begging for a public execution right in the midst of the rally.
That, right there, is why we cannot allow Trump to become the next president of the United States. All the crazy things about what he wants to reform would most likely never happen anyway. The Great Wall of Mexico? Never gonna happen. The banning of all 1.6 BILLION people of Islam from entering the U.S.? That’s just an idiotic thing to say.
But the hate, the hate that runs through the veins of him, and all of his supporters, that is something very real and extremely terrifying. Do we really want the United States, the supposed center of peace and security in the world to fall into nothing but hate and violence? We cannot allow him to get this position or not only the U.S., but the entire global community will resort to hate to solve all of their problems.
That is why it is so important that regardless of whether your specific candidate doesn’t get the nomination on either party, you need to go out and vote. Vote in the primaries. If your candidate makes it, fantastic, keep supporting them and vote for them in the election.
However, say you support a Mr. Bernie Sanders but he ends up not getting the party nomination, it is imperative that you get over it and go vote for Hillary Clinton. Regardless of what you think of her, you must admit that anyone would be better than that stain on the human race.
So please, this election season, go out and vote #AnyoneButTrump2k16.
