At some point many of us have experienced the awful feelings that accompany true fear. These types of feelings result in our stomachs dropping and quenching for some sort of relief.

Although the feeling is the same, the sources that create this feeling differ from person to person.

Even though the feeling is by no means pleasant, at least we can find something we can all bond over.

Unfortunately, at this very moment, many of our peers live in fear day in and day out because the man who allegedly leads this country wants them gone.

It is disgusting, to say the least.

Students who are trying to save this world’s future are not even sure they have a future to work towards.

It is ridiculous the same people who are often called “the future of America” have to be afraid of not being allowed to pursue bright futures because of the actions of President Donald Trump.

The staff at The Daily Eastern News is sick and tired of being afraid.

It is like the entire political realm has evolved into nothing more than a sick game where everyone is out for themselves. The spirit of camaraderie and everything moral has collapsed over the last decade.

It is absolutely exhausting to have to wake up everyday and learn about some new antic our so-called “commander-in-chief” pulled.

Whether it is the constant twitter tantrums, combative press conferences or his inability to take charge of his staff, leading to constant turnovers, the barrage of bad news seems to almost be constant.

As journalists, we understand the fact that news might not always be good, and it might not always be what we want to hear.

However, we acknowledge when there is nothing good to hear, especially from the White House on a daily basis, that people may become fatigued and even resent messengers who are just there to report the news.

As many of us want to become journalists, we in the newsroom have seen our future profession trashed.

It is exhausting having to defend journalism and our future careers.

During such a tumultuous year, it is also exhausting to see our peers dealing with this.

In an article from the Sept. 11 issue of The Daily Eastern News, Yesenia Muruato, a junior criminology and sociology major, gave a speech during a Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals rally, and through tears, she spoke about her experience.

She said she was one of 800,000 students who were affected by Trump’s order to end DACA.

It is not fair that someone like Muruato now fears for her place in the country she calls home.

We often write about needing accountability from our local officials, but this goes for national ones as well.

For the sake of the students, your neighbors, co-workers, family and friends, make sure someone like this is not elected again.
