3. We Fought For Four Years... But It Didn't Make A Difference

4. It made a difference

It might be hard to see it now, but it made a difference.

A movement has started and it can't just be put back in a bottle. The other side is reacting out of hate and fear - their success can only be sustained by feeding more hate and fear, but doing so will start to isolate them, as more reasonable people disassociate themselves with the extremists.

Think of all the struggles that the US has been through since its inception. This election was a baby step compared to some of the fights. People died for their rights. We need to keep going. It's only going to get more interesting.
