I am not affiliated with any political party. I consider myself an independent. I have voted liberal and I have voted conservative. When I see things going too far in a direction, I vote the opposite in hopes of obtaining balance in government. I have never resorted to name calling of those who hold a political view that differs from mine, if you have then all I can say is, shame on you for increasing the distance that divides us. It's time for some respect for each other and each others views. When we demonstrate that we cannot have respect for others we show our own ignorance. I've had a lot of progressive ideas and ideological thoughts but things have gone too far in recent years. The middle class has been pushed into oblivion.
Struggling just to survive with their jobs being taken by illegal immigrants, or shipped to other countries. Their health care has skyrocketed in price and deteriorated in quality. The American dream has become a pipe dream for too many people. This is the plight of the common man, the middle class. They get none of the benefits of the poor, unless they become poor. No one pays their bills, gives them free health care, free education for their children, free housing. They would have to be illegal immigrants to enjoy those government benefits paid for by their taxes. This country was built by immigrants but it's time for people to immigrate legally and do their far share, pay their taxes, support themselves. I have not seen one instance where socialism worked for very long, it won't work for America either. It's time to put on the brakes before it goes too far to pull back to constitutional values. Without borders, there is no country, without rules that apply to all citizens there will be eventual anarchy. There is no way on earth we can vet thousands of Syrians who will be flooding into this country, unless somebody puts American lives and welfare about globalism and political correctness. I'm tired of seeing our people hacked and shot to death by muslim radicals. So go ahead and continue to call me those names like stupid, dumb, uneducated, deplorable and a host of others, because I voted conservative this time. I'd rather hear you disrespect me than see my country go another step closer to socialism. The way I see it, it is not a personal reflection on my intellect or yours, on my morality or yours, it's what we see differently and how we feel we must vote. Stop complaining. Whether you accept it or not Mr. Trump is your president as surely as Mr. Obama has been the president for all of us for the past eight years and if we are too far apart to pull together at least stop the disrespect and name calling, at least try to heal the wounds rather than slicing new ones. As for the popular vote, there were at least four million fraudulent votes cast in this election.
