We Lost...

It happened, it did. Donald Trump won the presidential election, Republicans are going to control every branch of government. How did we let this happen?

I’ll tell you how. We stood up. We reached out. And we handed it to them on a gold platter.

I bet every liberal reading this is saying, “What? We did no such thing! We fought our asses off.”

Well, you didn’t. How do I know? Because I didn’t.

I didn’t fight in this election, I thought that I could simply sit out and wait. I was sure that I didn’t have to do anything other than vote in order for the Democrats to win this election.

We thought that Democrats were more popular than they are, we had grown so complacent with the Obama presidency that we forgot that election time is war time. We forgot that we had to actually fight for the White House, we forgot that we didn’t control everything.

Look, I know what you're thinking, “I did everything that I could! I’m just one person!” and I know, it’s not possible for any one person to make things happen. However, it is all of our faults. The Democratic Party is corrupt, liberals are lazy in politics, and we didn’t fight hard enough.

Petitions, facebook posts, and other forms of protests that distance themselves from the actual issues are ineffective in the grand scheme of things. We need to make this country aware of the issues that we care about. Think back to the civil rights movement and the movement for women's rights. People made sure that no one was able to ignore those issues, we protested, we led massive sit-ins and marches. The Democratic Party needs to be more like this.

The Democratic Party and Democratic voters are to blame for the Trump presidency. Don’t protest his victory! He won fair and square because we were lazy! Don’t pound your fists! Come together, work with him to get what we need and work your asses off to get a government that we want, in four years. Vote whenever possible, learn who the people are that you are voting for and learn what they stand for. Teach conservatives that liberals aren't whiny, entitled, sissy’s by working with them for the next four years to make America better than it is today and then in four years mobilize to show them that they can not beat us like they did this year. Show them that we are serious about making a better America and maybe they’ll respect us just enough to work with us. Maybe we’ll all be able to get along and work together, and maybe we’ll be able to finally “Make America Great” for everyone once and for all.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
