"US" - 
by Paul Genova
 
I'm noticing that a 
lot of you aren't graciously accepting the fact that your candidate lost.
 
In fact you seem to be posting even more hateful things about
those of us who voted for Trump.
 
Some of you are 
apparently "triggered" because you are posting how "sick" you feel about the 
results.
 
How did this happen 
you ask?
 
-------------------
 
You created "us" 
when you attacked our freedom of speech.
 
You created "us" 
when you attacked our right to bear arms.
 
You created "us" 
when you attacked our Christian beliefs.
 
You created "us" 
when you constantly referred to us as racists.
 
You created "us" 
when you constantly called us xenophobic.
 
You created "us" 
when you told us to get on board or get out of the way.
 
You created "us" 
when you forced us to buy health care and then financially penalized us for not participating.
 
You created "us" 
when you lied and said we could keep our insurance plans and our doctors.
 
You created "us" 
when you allowed our jobs to continue to leave our country.
 
You created "us" 
when you attacked our flag.
 
You created "us" 
when you took God out of our schools.
 
You created "us" 
when you confused women's rights with feminism.
 
You created "us" 
when you began to emasculate men.
 
You created "us" 
when you decided to make our children soft.
 
You created “us”
When you decided to rewrite school history books and remove the truth about our founders
 
You created "us" 
when you decided to vote for progressive ideals.
 
You created "us" 
when you attacked our way of life.
 
You created "us" 
when you decided to let our government get out of control.
 
"You" created "us" 
the silent majority.
 
You created "us" 
when you began murdering innocent law enforcement officers.
 
You created "us" 
when you took a knee, or stayed seated or didn't remove your hat during our National Anthem.
 
And we became fed up 
and we pushed back and spoke up.
 
And we did it with 
ballots, not bullets.
 
With ballots, not 
riots.
 
With ballots, not 
looting.
 
With ballots, not 
blocking traffic.
 
With ballots, not 
fires, except the one you started inside of "us".
 
"YOU" created "US".
 
It really is just 
that simple.
