Are We Not A Democracy? (Trump Election Backlash)

        I originally created this account for the sole purpose of commentating on current social and political issues that are of importance to me, all the while not calling out any particular political party. This is still where I stand, but I find myself unable to remain silent on the insanity which has currently gripped politics.
I will say Trump was far from being my first choice of candidate (like Hillary). I consider myself as more of a leftist on many issues, but on days like these, I would be too ashamed to ever wear such a label. I am sick of feminist, LGBT, BLM social justice warriors, and other liberal lunatics resorting toward the juvenile/criminal practices of rioting and demonizing people based on who they vote for.

The question it boils down to is, do we have a democracy, or not? YES, Trump was elected president of the United States, for better or worse depending on your opinion. He WILL be president the next four years unless some “liberal lunatic” manages to gun him down before his presidency runs it’s course. What these fanatical feminists/social justice warriors SHOULD be doing is thinking about preparing for the next election only FOUR YEARS away. Rioting is not going to change anything, and do you know what, regardless of whether or not you like Trump, IT SHOULDN’T change anything. ARE WE NOT A DEMOCRACY?! This is not the first time a candidate has been elected who was not my first choice. Even if you are a staunch opponent of Trump, you are doing yourself no favors by thinking you can bully and intimidate a candidate in and out of office who won the election FAIRLY and LEGALLY within the system. As a matter of fact, it is through the going outside of the law and democratic structure, as these people are doing, that we end up with a Hitler.

Speaking of which, I find the comparisons of Trump being the “next Hitler who will bring the next holocaust against blacks and gays” as insanity. No, I do not agree with all of Trump’s policies, but he is NOT the “antichrist” a lot of fanatical liberals are claiming him to be. Trump won his presidency within the system, not through riots and intimidation. But do you want to know who who did attain power through such actions? The Nazis!

My guess is Trump will be in office for at least four years, change little, and then move on like every other president. Because of our great democratic system which limits Trumps power and “reign,” he doesn’t worry me. What does worry me are the college age nutcases running around on television burning cars and protesting two days after the election JUST BECAUSE their “feminist hero” did not win. What is most ironic to me about this entire situation is the fact that the very people doing these things in the “name of liberty” are the ones attempting to destroy the democratic system which protects us all. In short, it is really our democratic election system social justice warriors are protesting, not Trump.

Like Hillary Clinton said, Trump IS our 45th president of the United States and IS entitled from the election victory, the status of commander and chief for the next four years, whether we like it or not. We still have our rights to oppose his decisions and call him out. We still have the right to name call and express our disdain for him online or in person. Again, you should also be thinking what you can do differently the next election if you are among those who want him out of office. What we do NOT have the right to do is think we can force him out of office causing destruction and violence to instill fear and intimidate. To those engaging in such actions, YOU are the problem, NOT Trump. I hope that we can move past all this. It is because of very instances like these that I view the “social justice warrior/feminist/LGBT/BLM movements as currently the largest threats existing toward democracy. It is time we stand up to intimidation and call these people out for what they are, a threat to our democratic ideals. Conservative, liberal, independent, we need to place our ultimate loyalty not with any particular political party, candidate, or movement. Instead, our loyalty should first and foremost be grounded in our value of freedom through democracy.
