Over this election cycle there has been so much drama surrounding the candidates and their followers. It seems like I can't go a day without seeing that a Hillary supporter did this or Trump said that. And in all honesty, I'm sick of it. Enough is enough America! Grow the hell up!
We've literally picked two of the most childish people to run for President. PRESIDENT. In case you don't understand how important this is, the chosen person gets to RUN AMERICA FOR THE NEXT FOUR YEARS. And yet we have chosen a woman with a shady past under FBI investigation, and a man who does not have a filter and then lies about what he did or didn't say. Are you kidding me?
The supporters of each candidate are no better. I won't say that all of them act this way, because they don't, but so many of them pick fights. Just a few days ago Hillary supporters were recorded harassing a homeless woman as she defended Trump's Hollywood star from further vandalism. I don't care who you are, vandalism is wrong and so is harassing the homeless, or anyone for that matter.
When did we stop being a country that stood up for what was right? When did we start pointing fingers like fiver-year-olds? When did it become unacceptable to be friends with someone that holds a different opinion than you?
"Surround yourself with smart, dedicated people - to build something isn't a one-man show. It's more important to have smart people who really believe in what you're doing than really experienced people who may not share your dream." Niklas Zennström, former CEO of Skype.
When did we basically become toddlers, incapable of holding our own beliefs without hate or violence? It's time to grow America. Because at this very moment, I'm disappointed and embarrassed. We can be better than this. I know we can.
