FDT Gone Wrong???

Introduction

It's been a while since I have finished a blog and the topic that I discussed from my last blog was something that happened in the Summer when some people were starting to blast at Pepsi for their infamous ad featuring Kendall Jenner. Now moving on from there, we got Donald Trump as the 45th President and as you know it, most people do not like this man despite his poor behaviour around certain races and his way of dealing problems and many more reasons. This one lady took this too seriously and too far.

Situation

This was the picture that was taken when a photographer for
Getty Images took this on the road to when Donald Trump was
on his way to a golf course.

I understand that some or at least most people and Americans hate Donald Trump but was this action really necessary when you see the president in person? Like sure, we would love to do that in expectations or in our dreams but in reality, we need to be cautious about what we do in front of an important person we don't like. This story starts when this woman was cycling on the road when she sees Donald Trump in a car going to a golf course. When she sees him, the woman asks Donald about the Puerto Rico Hurricane disaster, Las Vegas Massacre, her friends job security in the diplomatic corps, and many more topics. Before all of this even happened, the woman fingered at him when passing by. What the woman didn't know was that someone working for Getty Images took a picture of her passing through Trump. As soon as the image was posted on social media, it blew up and was spread throughout the internet. Surprisingly enough, her boss saw the picture of the woman on her profile and told her to delete the picture as her boss was emailed with threats. Later on Halloween, the woman was fired from her job for violating the code of conduct with that picture.

My Thoughts

First of all, just why? I mean in expectations, we would secretly do that if we hated Donald Trump so much but in reality, we need to be nice to people on the outside. It's not only normal people we need to be nice to but celebrities and well-known people like Donald Trump as well unless they act like totally rude people. Second of all, did we ever forget about thinking before doing something? Think of it as the butterfly effect; our actions can affect one another and that what ever we do, there will become different outcomes and consequences to whatever happens. For instance, if that lady on the bike did not finger at the passing vehicle with Donald Trump in it in the first place, she would have never got fired in the first place. However, since that lady on the bike saw Donald Trump passing through and fingered him, and then got photographed by some employee who works at Getty Images, she got fired because the photo was spreading worldwide. I don't know how or what else to say about this I mean, we should just keep the Trump hate to ourself. In addition, there's also the saying "if you don't have something nice to say, don't say it." Even if we are using our body language to speak, we still don't do it no matter how much you hate the person. I should just stop here because going in on Donald Trump is too much and it's getting old. I'm signing out for today. Thank you for reading this article and have a nice day everybody.
