The honorable way.

Donald Trump is not my president. Or our president. That’s my position. That is, if I’m talking for the majority of Americans. Please wake up, Mr. Trump. The majority voted for Hillary Clinton. By a margin of almost 3 million. You won. Legitimately. But on an electoral college fluke. If you were a fair-minded and decent guy, you’d be president for all Americans. Not merely for your base. Which actually represents only a minority of Americans. Might be wise, Mr. Trump, to follow the example of other presidents. The ones that truly tried to represent everyone. Even the people that voted against them. That’s the way a president is supposed to operate. Honorably. Working for the common good. Not just for the good of his base. --Jim Broede
