Oops, we’ve got some accountability to take, America.
We need to face the reality of our situation. Donald Trump is not the sole issue anymore; we can no longer point fingers solely at him. This goes beyond just one individual. The truth is, this behavior is not a surprise. The constant barrage of questionable statements, hostile outbursts, and immature reactions are all too predictable. The historical evidence is there for anyone willing to look.
Trump’s business dealings, his multiple bankruptcies, the downfall of Atlantic City, and his television career paint a very clear picture. He has always been problematic.
What’s alarming now is that 38% of Americans are not only justifying this behavior but celebrating and endorsing it. We are effectively giving our approval to the unacceptable and allowing it to represent us on the global stage, influencing the futures of our children.
This significant portion of the population seems to dismiss bigotry, moral recklessness, and even hints of violence. They are choosing to ignore the chaos around them, accepting the mess that has been created as the new norm. A third of us are downplaying atrocious behavior and convincing ourselves that this is what we need to regain our greatness.
And that’s the real tragedy.
This election season has revealed something profound about our nation’s identity. It’s shining a light on the deep-rooted issues of anger, racism, and fear that have taken hold in America.
Despite all the evidence against him, 38% of the population seems unfazed by Trump’s ignorance or dishonesty. This indifference has made his outrageous conduct seem acceptable, as if it’s now aligned with the qualities we expect from a leader. Mocking disabled individuals, inciting violence against protestors, and using derogatory terms for women have become normalized in political discourse.
We’ve descended into a troubling place where facts and reason are secondary to emotions and frustrations. This segment of the population is riding this dangerous wave, seemingly oblivious to the impending fallout. Instead of acknowledging our collective misjudgment, many appear more concerned about maintaining their dignity than correcting the course.
This isn’t just about one controversial figure; it’s a reflection of all of us. We have collectively contributed to this division, this fear, this anger, and this vulnerability. From churches to politicians, from corporate leaders to everyday citizens of various backgrounds—we’ve all played a role in shaping this environment.
Regardless of what happens in the near future, we must accept that this is our reality now. This is the society we’ve created together, and it’s crucial that we confront it together. Yes, we should feel uneasy and perhaps even ashamed right now. But rather than solely blaming Donald Trump, we need to look inward.
This is our responsibility to address.
