As the election approaches, we can’t help but feel anxious towards the various comments and disagreement among parties. With the aggression surrounding this election on Facebook and in the Presidential debates, we can’t help but feel scared and apprehensive for the election of 2016 so here are some reasons we feel this way:
1. Sexist comments. From Trump’s tirades…
2. To Hillary’s approach to vote for her because she’s a woman; our respect level is running low.
3. The hypocrisy of both candidates' ideas versus their actions.
4. The empty promises. Every election year, we seem to be promised major change, so here comes the BS.
5. The childishness of it all.
6. The Twitter wars. If they can’t be civil in person or on social media, how are we supposed to expect them to be civil in office?
7. Are we running for president or are we getting sent to the principal's office? We’re all a little confused…and would rather hear their ideas. Save the argument for later.
8. The terrifying reality of politics that we've seen far too often.
9. Constantly questioning how can we trust either of them to lead this country is not the best foundation for this election.
10. Maybe they should follow their own advice and figure out a plan to move forward and ditch the current plan of attack they've been undergoing.
This election has evolved from banter to Twitter wars and Facebook disputes that continue to contribute to our election anxiety. Moving forward, our anxiety will alleviate if the candidates can show respect for one another and focus on America otherwise, this anxiety will become an epidemic.
