Yes I am serious, no this is not click-bait, and yes this is exactly what I mean. I am okay with a Trump presidency, in fact I think it’s the best thing that happened to this country. Let me explain my position by asking a rhetorical question: has it not occurred to anyone that this was exactly what was bound to happen to America? Are you all really that shocked? I for one am no longer shocked; after eight years of a black president who created Obamacare and pushed for marriage equality, you can only imagine the rage conservatives had pent up for so long. So as a result we got Trump, and that’s a good thing.

The past two weeks have been magical; people were actually out protesting and have been more engaged in the news. Awareness for many issues is being raised and people are gathering together and bonds are being strengthened within the left. The left will emerge stronger after the Trump administration, and we have the conservatives to thank. I am a firm believer that the country will not descend into chaos during the Trump administration. There are some within my social group who believe that a second civil war is near and that we might actually see the balkanization of America. I don’t think it will. Forgive me for being optimistic, but I think we will see a new age of unity among ourselves. I do believe that animosity between the left and right will quell during the course of the next four or eight years. We have already seen republicans reject Trump and vote Hillary, we’ve seen republicans show their disdain for Trump, we are now seeing the left and right join against a common enemy. At this rate, we could finally end the two-party system.

So although it doesn’t feel good to have to explain to others why basic human decency is a good thing, take this into consideration: things have to get very bad before they get very good.
