Taking the good with the... reality,
Now that the election is over and I've had a chance to internalize everything, I want to share my thoughts. While I strongly disagree with the outcome, our democracy functioned exactly as it was designed. Ballots were cast, votes were counted, and the Electoral College votes were awarded accordingly. It worked perfectly. It doesn't mean the outcome is the one we wanted. The important thing is, it rendered an outcome in the end. It also proves anyone can run for the highest elected office and win a chance to lead this country. That's something the framers also designed. We as Americans are given the right to elect our leaders regardless of background, faith, sexuality, etc. You may not like the outcome, but be proud you had a say in who represents us in this grand American republic. Lastly, and I direct this to Donald Trump and his supporters. You've won. Congratulations on a hard fought race. Seriously, congratulations. ...
