I get it that people are stunned that in a country of 350 million this is the person we selected to be president. But remember, that guy who voted did not have 350 million choices, he had 2 legitimate choices and 2 lame choices.
What I don't get is when someone looks at those 4 choices how they could be shocked, surprised, or offended that this person made the choice they did.
Sometimes we assume we understand our country, but if you were shocked by this outcome it just goes to show you really don't know your fellow Americans as much as you think. Maybe you learned more about the two political parties, maybe you learned more about the media's "unbiased" presentation of the facts, or maybe you learned about the struggles that 60 million of your countrymen are going through and how those are quite different from the 60 million who were shocked. Personally I am disgusted that after this incredibly long process which completely dominated the airwaves we still have 60 million people who are so clueless about how the other 60 million feel.
Once again I am impressed by the collective wisdom of 60 million. What did they say?
1. You reap what you sow and you will be held accountable for your actions.
2. The winner of this election gets so few votes it is clear they don't have a mandate. (60 million represents 1 out of 6 Americans.)
3. The winner of this election does not win the popular vote, once again reenforcing that they don't have a mandate.
4. The winner of this election has just been warned, if we will do this to someone who has 25 years of experience and lots of political influence and friends, then you can bet we'll lock up your rear end as well.
5. If you thought that you could buy an election, guess again.
6. The republicans now have absolutely no excuse, so they will be held fully accountable in 2 years.
7. "You break it, you pay for it" applies to Trump.
Besides, since we are supposed to pray for those taking the lead that we would lead a peaceable life, then you can't beat this election for motivating the Christians to pray.
