Emerson's Child

      Election day is over and everyone is shook at the outcome. No one could believe what just happened. This election is tearing communities, states, even the country apart. Everyone is distraught and angry over the outcome of the election, no one could have predicted this would be the outcome. Everyone is talking about how the country is going to fall in the next four years.

      Emerson would view the 2016 presidential election as a disaster. Emerson would view this presidential election as a disaster because everyone is following society and saying the same thing. "Society is a wave. The wave moves onward, but the water of which it is composed does not.", is a quote Emerson uses that best fits this situation. No matter how much people say our new president is terrible it is not going to change the fact that he is still president. People need to except the fact that he is going to be the president for the next four years. People just need to move on and hope he will be a decent president.

       Do not get me wrong i hate our new president as well, but like i said not much we can do to change it. I just have to move on with my life and hope he does a good job as president of one of the most powerful nations in the world. I do believe that though that Emerson would think that our president would be a genius. Emerson would think Donald Trump would be a genius because he says whatever he wants and does not care what people think. For example he has said some pretty awful things, but he does not care what people think about his opinion. Everyone is also entitled to their opinion.
      "Let a man know his worth and keep things under his feet." I believe this quote by Emerson fits Donald Trump well because i believe he has found his worth. Like i said most of the things he says are terrible and awful things, but that is just him. I believe Emerson would like how Trump says things not caring what people would think. But, a lot of the things Donald Trump says are very controversial. There is a lot of people that disagree with his views on immigration and how he treats people. All his views are also causing havoc around the country. People are also throwing riots as well to protest against Trump.
      Emerson would have different views on this presidential election. He could say it is a good thing because people are standing up for something they believe is wrong. He could also say this presidential election is a disaster because everyone is following society and saying the same thing. Even though the outcome was not what people intended it to be, people just need to move on and hope for the best. People should riot and cause havoc because it is not going to change anything." Nothing can bring you happiness, but yourself."
