That's the goal of a perfect blog post. Well done. But I admit that I agree with Jenny more. <br /><br />The president of the college where I work has announced that he is leaving at the end of this year. I admit I don't care much about the history of the person who will become our next president, but I care deeply about how that person will protect and defend and fix and love our college in the future.<br /><br />As President Bartlet said often on The West Wing: What's next?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16104614417030565196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3563950890480925834.post-2995131379283409192017-01-20T10:08:33.552-08:002017-01-20T10:08:33.552-08:00Well written, Andy.

While I agree with most of what you said, I do believe Trump was elected fairly and that the electoral system is the right system, giving voice to those who otherwise would be "trumped" by the highly populous cities along our coasts. This country shouldn't just be for them (us) it should be for those that work hard in the central rural areas as well and Trump spoke to them. I believe we need to speak to them and their needs as well, not try to ignore them while pushing back on who they voted for. Yes, I believe they were tricked and this guy is not going to work for them like he promised, but while we are pushing back on the things we disagree with about Trump, we need to address those people's concerns so that next time they vote with us.<br /><br />But, again I agree with most of what you said. Trump is unfit to be president. I believe he could do irreparable harm to this country if we do not stand up for what we believe is right and push back on what we believe is wrong. I don't think we should do as the Republicans did though- simply obstruct so that Trump fails at everything. If he, my some miracle, comes up with a plan that we like - say actually creating jobs to fix infrastructure - then we should support that and do it loudly so that those who get those jobs know we were on their side. We should be better than the response we saw in the Republicans.<br /><br />Thank you for starting the dialogue and fixing our country!! :-)Jenny Woodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03768566882864617860noreply@blogger.com
