An Open Letter to the Trump Resistance

Protestors rally against President Trump's immigration ban.

Cassidy Jensen

Dear protester and resistor:

I understand how some of you feel about President Donald Trump’s order to build the new wall across the Mexican border and implement a 90-day travel ban against citizens of six countries and against those from Syria indefinitely.

However, there is a solution to the problem: Vote next year in 2018 midterm elections. Both the House and the Senate have a Republican majority. What we the people need to do is fill Congress with Democrats. Not just any Democrats, mind you, but those who will not be afraid to speak out against Trump’s policies.

I don’t agree with the president’s decision. It is flat out unconstitutional. We need to hold him accountable for that.
