He Will NOT Divide Us

In times like these we must stand together and fight against the injustices.

He Will NOT Divide Us
Business Insider

It's only been about a few weeks since Trump stepped into office, and he's already messing things up. If you don't think that, then you are probably just as blind as he is. Don't believe me? Then let me explain it to you in the clearest way possible.

First, he green-lighted the Dakota Access and Keystone pipelines. The executive orders that Trump signed will benefit oil pipelines. He reinstated the anti-abortion gag rule, and because of this it will increase unsafe abortions around the world (THANKS TRUMP!!!!!). His stupid wall idea that literally no one wants to pay for. Money that can be used in other more important areas like children and veterans healthcare, but Trump is for the people right? The EPA had to take it's website page on climate change down. And my personally favorite, Trumps ban on Muslims.

After all of this and much more, do you really believe he is a suitable President? If anything, he reminds me more of a dictator than an actual President. What would banning Muslims do? Most if not all cases of terror attacks have been made by US RESIDENTS OR CITIZENS. Shocking I know. And if we're banning a group of people because of the religion why don't we ban Christians? The KKK were all Christians and they caused a lot of terror to our country, but right the KKK aren't terrorists... they're white.

Now more than ever our country is separated. It's a constant battle between Trump supporters and those who hate every word he says. There are those who protest and fight for the rights of others, and there are those who believe protestors are "cry babies in need of a safe space", but you know what, I say protest till someone listens. Just because Donald Trump is the President, doesn't mean I have to listen or bow down to him. He isn't a god. Fight against every single injustice that comes from his cabinet. Fight for the rights of immigrants, people with no healthcare, minorities, women, Muslims, and the LGBTQ+ Community. Fight for those who need you most and prove to Trump and the world that he will NOT divide us. We were a country built on protests and fighting back, and if we have to do it again, then we will.

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.
