The Electoral college put Mr. Trump in as our new President to sworn in. I do not like it or agree with it. It is something that I accept. I have been following the Biblical injunction to pray for our leaders.
My prayers for Donald Trump are simple. God will grant him the adult maturity he needs. He will surround himself with advisers that are wise. He will remember that the President has an obligation to represent all the people in the U.S.
Most of all, to remember that every word that comes from his mouth must be carefully thought out. Where is the proof that millions voted illegally for Hillary Clinton? Saying that without proof is spreading rumors. The rumor can be renounced but its memory in the minds of people can not. This action is not one that a President should take..
A recount should only show that the election was done right. Fear of a recount and loud protests against it raises a few questions. Why is the President - elect afraid of a recount? Is there something there the public needs to know?
I watched news feeds and read information from the following links before blogging.
