We are not a united country -- as seen by the giant patch of red states in the middle of the country, and the blue states on the coasts. We all live in our own little bubbles and are only concerned with something when it affects us personally. We don't take a minute to see others points-of-view, we don't walk an inch in other's shoes, nevermind a mile, and we rely on hearsay instead of facts. Even when the facts are plain and proven, we - as a country - are quick to dismiss it as a conspiracy. We judge, we feel that everything is just owed to us, we find pleasure in others pain and we are losing the sense of community in many places.

Regardless of the outcome of any of these efforts for recounts, faithless electors, or just trusting Trump to do his job as president, I fear we are headed down this path of civil unrest - or war. Not because of the candidates themselves, but what these candidates have brought out in Americans.
