In my own personal opinion this election has to be the worst one to be a part of for my first time. Since the polls have opened, I have been very stressed out because it is my duty to vote. I do still believe that my own vote doesn’t matter, but because I have the opportunity to vote, I am going to take full advantage of that opportunity.
Donald Trump. The biggest thing I heard from this gentleman was that he wanted to build a wall on the borders between the U.S. and Mexico. My initial reaction was, “Good luck with that.” In the mean time, many others jumped to the conclusion that he is a racist man. I’m sure his statement offended a lot of people—but in 2016, everything offends Americans—though it did not really faze me. I mean, they were just words. In my own opinion, actions speak louder than words. One of the actions I have seen from do is pray. Now, I do not know if those actions were genuine or not, but what I do believe is that prayer is very strong and that God can and will answer our prayers. I am fearful that if Trump does become president that he may care more about money rather than the people of this country. I am not sure what his actual motives are if he does become president.
Hillary Clinton is someone I do not know much about. Honestly, I do not have much care for politics, but the one thing I do understand is that she is a criminal. For that reason I do not think she would be best suited as our president. Also, one thought that comes to mind is, “Is she really wanting to be president for the benefit of this country or to say that she was the first woman president?” Just like Trump I am not sure where her motives lie. Is she wanting to really help benefit this country or does she have her own personal motives?
Does voting for either one make me a terrible person? Does not voting make me a waste of a citizenship? I really do not know what to expect from this election or what the new president will bring to our country. At the end of the day I will trust that God will not turn his back on us. As I also hope that no matter who the president is that we do not turn our back on God the way the Israelites did. We are nothing without God. He is our molder has designed us and he has brought us this far and I do not believe that he abandon us. So, no matter who the next president is I say, God bless America.
