The nation has a new president-elect.
I’m angry recalling his
nasty, mean campaigning.
Forever it seems, he baited
President Obama’s ire with unbelievable nonsense questioning his birth
certificate.
News conveyed his insult of the
father of a Medal of Honor patriot . . . and snarky commentary regarding the
dead hero’s mother. Their young
military man sacrificed his life for America, and his never wavering response
was to insult them and their culture.
He demeaned women, I think. He met the negative reaction
to reports of his invasive liberties toward women with cavalier disregard for
the inappropriate behavior, even piled on more demeaning comment in support of
his actions.
To me, he was a shockingly disrespectful,
uncouth campaigner.
NOW, he’s the winner of the
election process.
These days I am challenged to
forget all of the emotional terror he caused and respect him. My common sense mentality rankles at this
responsibility to do so.
They say he will change; latest
interviews give a glimmer he may. If he doesn’t ease up on a few dire promises,
millions will be devastated. I want to
believe he will bring all of us, this world, this planet a better presidency
than his campaign rhetoric unrelentingly assured.
Yes, the election is over yet
his campaign strategy continues to feed my emotional unrest. How much was a strategic threat?
Today I continue to work
through ANGRY. I wait for the latest
news born from deliberations led by a powerful celebrity who was marketed, for
sure to the masses, as thoughtlessly divisive and self-serving.
It’s another America’s turn
to serve this diverse nation. My spiritual undergirding assures God is in
charge. Thus it will be good – painful
perhaps, but good.
