New revolution

The political and news media elites are in total apoplectic and depressed shock with Donald Trump's victory over Hillary Clinton. They simply can't understand how the American people could possibly elect Donald Trump and reject Hillary since it was her turn to be president "because she is a woman."

Of course they blame "deplorable, uneducated, working class white males" and their "racism, sexism, and xenophobia" for electing Donald Trump.

As a white male who voted for Trump and who graduated cum laude from college and whose factory he was responsible for employed 50 percent black and 50 percent female workers who were paid exactly the same as the white males we employed, allow me to explain Trump's victory.

This election was seen as "The Second American Revolution" by a majority of Americans. It was a nonviolent revolution to protect our Constitution, Bill of Rights, the Supreme Court, states' rights and our traditional American values of independence and a color blind meritocracy that rewards hard work and results, not race or ethnicity.

This was a peaceful revolution against the political correctness that attacks people who respect the rule of law and moral behavior as has been the case for the last eight years. And this election was a peaceful revolution by those Americans that believe that America and world peace are under great threat because of our "Neville Chamberlain" policy of appeasement under President Obama.

A majority of Americans want to "Make America Great Again" by stopping Chinese cheating and by recreating a pro-business nation that will bring back millions of American manufacturing jobs. Just like in "Brexit," the elite media simply didn't understand the "people" and they were dead wrong in their polling predictions.

Now, President Trump, let's get to work and "Make America Great Again"!
