this is the right answer . <| sep |> Two separate issues . I agree the chances are slim that they ' ll actually do their jobs and we need to unite as a country . Unfortunately Donald Trump decided that divisiveness was the ticket to winning the election . So you can ' t really expect an easy end to that . What are we going to do ? Sorry guys , he was just kidding about you being rapists and murderers . Just a joke about registering muslims like we did with japenese american internment camps . Yeah I mean the KKK did endorse us , but lol they ' re just voters . Waterboarding and throwing political opponents in jail ? LOL just kidding guys . Making fun of people with disabilities ? Nah he was just dancing . I mean I could go on and on , but do I really need to ? It ' s easy to get on with one ' s life when you ' re not concerned that your race , sexuality , or ethnicity isn ' t going to be a target on you . I ' m a white male , under a Trump administration I got nothing to worry about . But I am worried . And you , regardless of your background , should be worried too . This isn ' t just another election where we can get on with our lives . Where does the slippery slope lead ? Even if you aren ' t worried or think it was all just rhetoric which in and of itself is inappropriate to use to get votes , do you not feel a concern for your fellow Americans and human beings that they might be unfairly attacked , legislated against , or subjected to hate because Donald Trump made it ok . ? There ' s so much more going on than the electoral college issue . But the electoral college issue does play into the much wider issues we have to address . And to clarify , this isn ' t a personal attack or mocking of your comment . I agree with you on needing to come together . But we need to also help others understand why it ' s going to be difficult and why we need to keep the discussion going .
