A Tale of Two Posts

 Take heart . . .


I had prepared two different posts for after the election – and I really wish I was posting the other one.

 America Just had a Worse Day than This . . .

Like most non-Trump voters I am gob smacked by the results. Who knew there were so many people who were so angry and dissatisfied with their lives in our country that they were forced to vote for possibly the most unqualified candidate ever. As a twice-impeached felon who is clearly mentally diminished and who tried to overthrow his previous loss, he is certainly a "interesting" choice. Our two party system; ain't it grand?

Perhaps more problematic than his dark outlook on America, however, are the barnacles that are riding along with him. People like Elon Musk, Rob’t  Kennedy Jr. – and the Evangelicals? And, of course, his crackerjack VP, JD Vance.  

JD does offer one positive for Trump however. Never thought I’d say this but with him in the wings we REALLY must hope that Trump makes it to 2028 alive.

(And who knows, maybe he - or his corpse - can run again, 22nd Amendment be damned!)

For now, let's all hustle through the five stages of grief and get to "acceptance" (as distasteful as that is) as soon as possible. 


As Bluto said in Animal House, "Was it over when the Germans attacked Pearl Harbor?” No and it ain’t over now! So take heart, we just have to survive the next four years; we did it before and we can do it again. 

As you may guess, I will have more to say but I need to process this fiasco a bit more myself. 

Hang in there, friends.

But for now . . .
