Everyday I become more and more disheartened by the backlash
from those that I know who vehemently show their hatred for Donald Trump. There are some from my generation, but I cannot help but notice it is coming more
from the 20 to 30 something year olds.
You know the ones, those who have only been voting for a couple or three
years. Some who don’t even vote, either
because they don’t have voting privileges or because they have “better” things
to do. I call this generation the
“Everyone gets a trophy Generation.” I
keep asking myself, where is all this anger and bitterness coming from? Why
are these young adults turning into rude, nasty mouth, vulgar posters on Facebook? Then I realized what it was. Some of us have raised our children to
believe they are entitled to win, no matter what. They want their trophy! So when that ‘trophy’ was not presented to
them, they took to the streets and stomped and screamed. They broke their toys and the toys of hard
working people. Can you blame them? That
is all they know…. they are supposed to get whatever they think it is they
want. Far be it from them to think they
need to listen to reason! Why in the
world would they listen to the advice of those who have lived through more than
1 or 2 Presidents???? They see things as
black and white. They didn’t get their
Pot loving guy in the office, the old dude who spent months brainwashing all of
those who cannot think for themselves that if he doesn’t win the nomination,
they should just pick up their toys and go home…and not bother voting. But the unthinkable happened….the man that
Madonna or Stephen Colbert told them was evil, Hitler reincarnated, actually
won the election. Now, for the first
time in their entitled lives they want to stomp their feet and start
crying. They do not want the Electoral
Votes to count any longer. It doesn’t
matter that this was decided long ago, before their whiney little butts were
even thought of by our founding fathers.
They realized on November 3, when they woke up that they could do
nothing about it. This infuriated them;
they are supposed to get whatever they want.
It didn’t matter that the last President caused more racial divide in
the 8 years that he was President than any other President, it didn’t matter
that he pardoned a criminal who betrayed our Country and put the lives of many
of our dedicated service men and women in danger, it didn’t matter that he
forced them to sign up for healthcare even though they didn’t want it, he was our
first Black President and that was all that mattered to them. Now before I cause a lot of butt hurt to some
that I love, if you do not fit this profile, then you won’t be offended. And if you are, then you are just going to
have to go to your room and stew for a while.
You may even have to realize that if you want changes in the years to
come, you had better get out there and work your butt off and advocate for
those changes. Just because mommy and
daddy gave in to your every whim does not mean you are going to get your way
every time. I am going to repeat
something that one of my favorite Packers said to his team and fans…RELAX.
