The 2016 Election that divided America & friendships in half…

in negreanu •  8 years ago 

You know we have 4 more months of campaigning till we choose our next president and only one can win…Yet as I look around I see a country more divided than ever before…I see people who are becoming horrible human beings…Way outside their normal selves…It is the most explosive time in America and many are calling it a civil war with deaths on both sides…

One of the best people I know in poker and life…Normally

As I look today I see people like Daniel Negreanu calling his friends of many years like Doyle Brunson @texdolly a racist and other untrue accusations publicly…He ripped his friend Mike Matusow @themouthmatusow as being brain dead and a drug addict…Yes Mike has had a drug addiction and he has tried to rebuild his life more than once yet anyone that knows him can tell you his heart is in the right place…Now I know Daniel and he is very outspoken…Usually picks the good fight…Yet over the past year he has become obsessed with Donald Trump to the point where he is overcome with hate and rage on a daily basis…Telling half his followers that they are stupid for supporting their candidate and insulting anyone with an opinion that differs from his or attacks Hillary Clinton…Now this is not about ripping Daniel who is a great person…Very genuinely cares about people everywhere most of the time…This is about all of us realizing that this election comes every 4 years and this one will end in about 4 months…Our character and friendships should last longer…

This is about Making America Great Again

No matter who wins the election we have to focus on America and her problems…She is hurting…It is our country one we all love a great deal…We have to remember that as we get past this election and hopefully have not burned the bridges too bad to the people we love and respect or at least like as friends and acquaintances…
When the election is over we will have a new POTUS and if it is Clinton or Trump or someone else we have to come together and focus on America together…We have to mend the damaged economy…The racial tension that has gotten horribly worse over the past 8 years…We have to start hugging each other over social media instead of kicking each other…

Let’s hug it out a little bit more and listen to each other…

We cannot all be right all the time…Not every candidate is the second coming of lucifer…We have to hire the next candidate based on their ability to lead this country out of its problems…Let’s ask the right questions…Let’s listen more and talk less…Let’s stop looking for the next insulting meme to post and find more facts to post that tell the truth and not the story the corrupt media wants us to hear…

Let’s Make America Love Each Other Again…Or at least like each other…
