Oops, this one’s on us, America. It’s time we take responsibility.
Donald Trump isn’t the sole issue anymore. We can’t keep pointing fingers at him. This situation transcends his individual actions. The reality is that none of his behavior is surprising; the constant stream of offensive comments, aggressive outbursts, and immature reactions are all part of his established persona. His history, filled with questionable business dealings, bankruptcies, and his time in the spotlight, speaks volumes.
Donald Trump has always been problematic.
The real issue now is that 38% of Americans are justifying, defending, and even celebrating this problematic behavior. We are enabling it, financing it, and essentially saying that this is what we want to represent us. We are allowing this to lead us and shape the future for our children.
This significant portion of the population is repeatedly excusing bigotry, rationalizing reckless behavior, and turning a blind eye to violence—all while thinking it’s acceptable. A third of us are dismissing abhorrent behavior as necessary for making America great again.
This is a national tragedy. The current election cycle is an unsettling reflection of who we are. It unveils the deep-seated anger, racism, and fear embedded in the fabric of America. A third of us seem perfectly fine with this and are complicit in its growth.
Thirty-eight percent of the country seems unfazed by how uninformed Trump is, how often he distorts the truth, or how low he sinks. It’s all fine, they think—just collateral damage in what they perceive as bold leadership from an outsider who articulates their frustrations.
Making fun of people with disabilities, inciting violence against protesters, degrading women—these traits are somehow being normalized in our political discourse.
We’ve sunk to a new low. This is a problem because a significant portion of us refuses to let facts or reason challenge our feelings or our desire to rebel against the status quo.
Thirty-eight percent of us are on this disastrous course, seemingly unwilling to admit our mistakes and make a change. We seem more concerned with maintaining our pride than averting the crash ahead.
This isn’t just on one dangerous individual. It’s not solely about those who support him. 100% of us need to take responsibility because we’ve all contributed to this situation.
We’ve collectively become fearful, angry, divided, and vulnerable. Churches, politicians, businesses, and everyday citizens from all walks of life have played a role in this. We’ve built this environment together, and it’s up to us to address it together.
Regardless of what unfolds in the upcoming elections, this is our reality now. This is who we are. We should feel uneasy, embarrassed, and even disgusted. But instead of looking outward at Donald Trump, let’s look in the mirror. This is our collective mess.
