Minorities, stop your complaining

"Black Lives Matter," but Black votes matter more.

In the last week of the election, Michelle and Barack Obama spoke in cities like Detroit, Philly, Raleigh, and Charlotte telling voters every vote counts, and to "Please Vote."

Well, even though Hillary won the popular vote, the minority vote numbers were down overall.

Even though I, myself, wasn't for Hillary, I heard how the end of the world would be coming if Trump got elected. With all of the horrible things that people said Trump had said, this was a perfect chance to "Delete him" by voting.

I believed the minority vote would've overwhelmed the white vote as it did in 2012 and Hillary would be the first woman President of the United States. I was wrong.

With all that was on the line for minorities, the Supreme Court, immigration, and so-called women's rights, minorities didn't vote in the number that was necessary to get the job done. People from the NBA to the NFL, the news media, the entertainment industry, late night hosts such as Conan, Dave Chappelle, Chelsea Handler were crying and people were giving somber speeches. This election was mourned like 9-11 and Pearl Harbor. There's not an ounce of happiness in the United States, not even from the people who voted for "Him".

The hypocrisy of the Hillary people is amazing. When Trump said he wasn't sure he would accept the results of the elections, people said what a horrible person he was. But, when Hillary lost, people knew the importance of this. They knew what this was about but took no responsibility.

Minorities stop your complaining, people have fought for the right for YOU to vote. People have spilled blood for YOU to vote. You had your chance. Michelle and Barack Obama showed up with Jay Z and Beyonce, and LeBron James and minorities did show up for those free concerts en masse.

But, they didn't show at the voting booths in the same numbers. Now you know all need to know.
