Would it be too much to ask...

No matter who wins tonight, wouldn't it be nice if we could all show some class and be gracious about it?

Personally I say yes. But collectively, as a society, as a people, no. Sorry. It's out of the question.

You're probably right about society as a whole, but how about just here on Christian Forums? Is it worth a try?

It is a noble thought and I applaud you for it. If those in power were to display the same gracious leadership as you have shown here then America would be a better and safer place. Sadly, I've checked the skies and I see no sign of porcine aviators.

Yeah...I don't see that happening, trumps always declaring he will cheat, and if he pulls off winning by fraud and not allowing full counts, he will end up with a massive problem on his hands. One thing if trump wins legitimately, but if he goes to the courts to throw out ballots that would make him lose...no way that's going to go well.

It is so difficult for people to simply control their thoughts and fingers for sixty seconds and say, "God bless America!" and leave it that that, lol.

You tried, OP. You tried.

maybe those asking for civility should ask that from their president.

It won't matter who wins...it's going to be pretty gross. Whatever group wins will clearly make a celebration of whatever motivated their vote. The other group will whine about it for 4 years and blame the president for everything.

Wash. Rinse. Repeat.
