Trump You Are President Elect of America, Not President Of The People

Last edited Tue Dec 20, 2016, 02:32 AM - Edit history (1)

It's official, Donald J Trump received enough rubber-stamped votes in the Electoral College today to overturn the "Will of The People" and is now President Elect, but he is not, and never will be the People's President. We reject him. My open letter to him:

Trump You Are President Elect of America, Not President Of The People

Dear Donald J Trump:

Today it became official, you are the President of America. However, we at this moment in history are not the United States of America, and you are not the President of the people. Most of us hate you, despise you, don't trust you, or are just flat out scared to death of what your Presidency is going to do to the people you are supposed to serve. The very concept of you serving anyone or anything other than Donald J Trump and his interests would be laughable if it were not so scarily laughable. You have spent your entire life thinking everything is all about the Donald, and you have spent your entire life stooping to any level in your quest to feed your own ego.

Your zealots masquerading as pundits on various and assorted manipulated news channels tell us we must accept your presidency, must get over our anger and unite behind you and your agenda for America...that is not going to happen. Most civilized human beings here and around the world find everything about you repugnant, find that your views on the most important issues of our time run contrary to our beliefs. You are perceived to be the Modern Day reincarnation of Adolph Hitler, your cabinet choices a rebirth of the Third Reich on steroids. Under your leadership, World War III is no longer something we guard against, but a likely probability. You in your four years will more than likely lead America into War, destroy our standing in the world for decades to come, and possible set Global Climate Change on a course that will lead to Earth becoming just another dead planet flying through the cosmos devoid of all life.

First line of second paragraph ... marinading? I don't think you were going for the cooking term marinating. Maybe masquerading?

2. Thanks for the catch...
