Trump Supporters Make Sanders Volunteer Cry
By Lina Bryce
First there was a young woman who complained that her employer didn’t pay her a living wage, and now, a young woman by the name of Chelsea pulls her emotional self together just long enough to post a 4-minute video about her traumatic experience while phone-banking for Bernie Sanders. By all accounts, it would appear that millennials are making all the headlines this week because reality is just too much for them: typing open letters and uploading videos lamenting that fact is their call to arms.
In her video, Chelsea says that she “never got emotional over politics before” and that she “is still learning.” While sobbing, she struggles to cope with the terrible comments made by those whom she refers to as Republican voters in the “deep south” while phone banking on Saturday.
“These are people that [sic] think they won the Civil War,” she says. “It’s like talking to less than a brick wall.”
While choking back tears, she says that “Trump supporters are really sick people … a lot of comments about building walls and getting rid of Mexicans … Hearing them for hours was just so horrible!” she said. “There were very few Republicans and Conservatives that would be kind and not have something horrible to say.”
Brace yourself, Chelsea. If a few Trump supporters rattled your cage, life is going to throw you some nasty curve-balls that will make you want to dig a hole and crawl in. If you think that people hating others is painful to watch, wait until you are slammed with a medical bill that you can’t afford, because your $25,000 annual health insurance policy applied the service to your $2,500–$5,000 deductible, all while raising a family on a “living wage.”
She and the rest of her coddled generation have been so twisted up with “feelings” and blatant socialist diatribe that has become quite pervasive in our educational systems and media culture that they don’t even know simple facts, like what race they “identify” with.
“I don’t even know what qualifies you as white anymore!” she tearfully exclaims.
Yes, there are hateful people in this world, who, by the way, are not exclusive to the “deep south.” There is an aggressive group of people who wish to demonize successful people. They prefer to cloak themselves with a false identity as being “do-gooders,” but in reality work tirelessly with government bureaucrats to steal as much as they can from productive people by force. This is the same logic that convinced economically inept people that a paramedic should be paid the same as a fast-food employee. Yet, they will vehemently deny that they are Communists. This is the same logic that brought in the rise of candidates like Donald Trump.
If words hurt, then stealing kills.

My unsolicited advice to Chelsea: politics is nasty. So while I’ve compromised your “safe space,” let me remind you that when someone has an opinion that is different from yours, no matter how offensive, it still isn’t a personal attack on you. It isn’t personal until they come knocking on your door to demand your wealth to give to others without your say so.
