Donald Trump being elected into office has many people distraught. Macklemore is one of those many people, as he has a young daughter that is going to have to see at least four years of a sexist, dangerous man in office. To express his feelings, he wrote 1-year-old Sloane an open letter on Instagram. While it was meant for his baby girl, it also gave his millions of followers some encouragement as well. “I am disappointed, shocked and shaken at my core by what has transpired tonight,” Mack wrote, along with a photo of a sleeping Sloane. “I gathered around the TV with my family and loved ones, ready to celebrate history being made. My daughter had this little blue dress on. I was ready to pop the Martinelli’s and hold her, watching Hilary Clinton become the first female president of the United States of America. But…It didn’t happen.” Continue reading his message below. We can get through this together!
