Is This What you Wanted?

I admit I don't really understand how anyone voted for the idiot we have in the White House.  He's been a joke in the New York area for many years and a wanna be forever.

When he ran for President, it seemed like a publicity stunt as his contract for the apprentice was up and he needed some publicity. 

He has absolutely no qualifications and a checkered history of misogyny, greed and failure.

He does have some money, although exactly how much might be a good question and the odds are that the TV show saved his butt from being a complete failure.

It seems like the one thing he was sort of good at was getting headlines, not always for good things, but as they say all publicity is good publicity.

Now I have seen the analysis that many people in this country feel that they are losing out as immigrants and foreign countries take their jobs and futures.  Of course they probably needed to pay better attention to what was happening and prepare themselves for it.

So many jobs have been lost to automation over the years and the benefits of that accrue to a relatively small number of people.

Not the people working for $2 a day in an Asian sweat shop or the immigrants picking crops or changing bed linens, but wealthy people who run things have benefitted.

However, a story has been told that its some conspiracy to steal your jobs and your country form you and give it to people we used to discriminate against, minorities, gays, immigrants and other undesirables.

This benefits those same wealthy people, keeping you quiet or focusing your anger on the wrong group.  Wealthy people are behind the deception and you then elected one of them to fix it?

Grow up and get a set or put on your big girl pants and smell the coffee.  You are being duped and you blame everyone except yourself and the real culprits who took the money and ran.

Wallow in your own self pity while you pretend to believe in rugged individualism.  Millennials understand that we each have to create our own brand and find our own success. 

Why don't you?
