Were you in support of #ImWithHer or were you ready to "Make America Great Again?" Are you relieved of our President-elect? Are you scared of our President-elect? Either way, we, and when I say we I refer to America as a whole, have your back.
In the first election I decided to pay attention to, I learned so much about this country: the people in it and the people running for President of the United States. I learned how important our opinions are, how important it is to accept other people's opinions, and how important it is to be open to new and foreign ideas.
I was never a Trump supporter, in fact, I woke up on November 9, 2016, with a stomachache and that was before I found out he won the election. Every debate I cringed, I felt embarrassed for him and his beliefs, I couldn't take him seriously. His voice, his gestures, and him in entirety went right through me. Never in a million years have I thought that Donald Trump would be the President of the United States. Keep in mind that I wasn't a huge fan of Hilary either. I felt the way she presented herself and the way she spoke to America was much more graceful and meaningful.
Now, Donald Trump is and will be our President. My feelings have not changed, I am not a supporter of Trump, but I do and will continue to have an open mind. There is nothing that I personally can do about this. We proud Americans, brothers, and sisters, neighbors, and coworkers need to come together. We need to give Donald Trump a chance. A chance to prove to us he's more than that man that stood in front of us for the past three months yelling and being demanding.
Donald Trump is, believe it or not, a human being. He may be different than most of us, but he does have the right to his opinion and his beliefs.
I wrote this article truly to voice my opinions to those anxious, hopeless, angry, and scared to watch America be Made Great Again. As a woman, I'm right there with you. The unknown is feared, but it should also be looked positively upon.
I truly believe Donald Trump will surprise us, I truly hope Donald Trump surprises us.
