4 Things To Remember About The Election
Unknown

1) He IS your president. Whether that makes you excited, or not so much. We, as American citizens are all under the rule of one unified government, built on the Constitution.The majority of people who are upset about the election dislike Donald J Trump. Many accuse him of being “hateful, homophobic, racist, a bigot, etc.” But ironically, what do they do in response? Chastise Trump supporters, burn American flags, riot, loot, steal, attack, and cause utter strife. All things considering, this is a TAD BIT hypocritical…. How about instead of acting like uncivilized delinquents, we handle things like adults and turn to ration and reason? Because I can tell you right now that as a divided nation we will get NOTHING accomplished. Many of us, were nothing short of furious at the fact that Barack Obama, questionably the worst president that we have ever had, took the office for a long and grueling eight years. However, you didn’t see people destroying things and acting like animals as a result because at the end of the day, that’s how the people voted.

`2) Trump won the electoral college 306 to 232. Thus, the majority of Americans decided that Trump was what our nation needs right now. Fair and square.

3) Say what you want about the Donald, but I would take an in-politically correct man over a woman who has lied to the American people, murdered American citizens, supports third-term abortion, rigged the election from Bernie Sanders, left Libya in turmoil, sold weapons to ISIS and helped fund terror organizations, was mentored by Margaret Sanger, in whom helped create Planned Parenthood in attempt to limit the birth of minorities, deleted thousands of emails--need I go on?

4) You can’t change the results, so instead of griping, we should look at how to move forward from here. We should discover ways to make the best of what we have got to work with for the next four years, because no solutions can be formed until we first come to terms with the results.

However, until that day comes, strife will continue and division will prevail.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
