If you are outraged
at what is happening to this country and you voted for the Libertarian Party or
Green Party or you wrote in Bernie Sanders in the 2016 Presidential Election,
then by omission you elected Donald Trump.
The obvious reality
was, there were only two possible outcomes to the election: either the
Democratic Party candidate Hillary Clinton or the Republican Party candidate
Donald Trump would become President.
If you felt
that you were distinguishing yourself as a ‘thinking liberal’ by ‘voting your
conscious’ then you forfeited your right to complain about Trump; but perhaps
in the next election you can redeem yourself.
This inflexible purity of the far-left works to the benefit of the
Republican Party.
The real
politic is, like it or not, the U.S. has a two-party system, and you either
work within that system or, like the old man yelling at clouds, you get
attention from your neighbors, but you accomplish nothing.
Sometimes
the truth is uncomfortable.
