For me, I don’t think the fence can be mended. My anger comes not from policy but how I can’t understand why people are so willingly able to turn over their future to a guy who has none of the character traits that I thought we valued as a country. The idea that anyone can be President is the offshoot of this craziness that “I’m not going to believe scientists and do my own research” type crap. We have a problem valuing expertise and we are about to experience the impact of that.
It is true that I don’t agree with GOP policies in general, but I can set that aside.
May main problem with my fellow Americans is that while they are willing to take a chance on their future with Trump, I am not. I cannot understand how anyone would feel like he was in this to improve their lives. Even in my own life, I find that the Trump supporters are typically very low information voters and either have the wrong information or none at all.
We are going to experience some things over the next four years. I’m taking the Red Hat approach that I am going protect me and mine and I can’t worry about anything else because I am powerless to change it.
I’m super resentful that this is where things are.
Trump and the people that will surround him are not good people. They are there for power and grift. How people don’t care more about that is beyond me.
I can’t forgive it. We have the greatest country and economy in the world and to take a chance like this is reckless and irresponsible. After all, 40% of NC voted for the nazi porn guy. WTF is wrong with us?
