“So what now?” is the question on everyone’s mind?
Including Donald Trump.
48% of Americans decided to make
one of the most polarizing figures in recent history to be there 45th
President. You are right Mr. Obama, Sun did rise today, but for some the warmth
might not be the same as yesterday. What happened on the night of Nov 8th
2016 in America, says a lot about the 48% Americans. It says that it’s totally
fair to trade nebulous promises of economic success for racism, sexism, and
xenophobia. I am no economic or social expert, but would love to see how the
rust belt will get their jobs back and why will Mexico pay for building the
wall.
Last night was hard, and I
certainly didn’t sleep much. But I like almost all working class Americans are
at work this morning and we need to do the best we can to address the issues
deep within our society that led us here. The idea of ‘America’ can’t be lost because
of one election cycle. Remember: There was no perfect time in American history.
America is a work in progress. This great democracy always had problems and hardworking
Americans have always been working towards fixing them.
There are many Americans across
the United States who woke up this morning and are apprehensive because of their
skin color, gender, religion, or sexual orientation. They might feel that their
political voice is lost. I will urge to those Americans, please don’t give up,
for America needs you more now, than ever before.
