For those not watching...

Be grateful.

This is one of the worst things I've ever watched.

Filling me with despair for our country.

You'll see what I mean when you see the highlight reels tomorrow.

That's all I can think of to say.

I like to know what people are saying.

Even people that I fucking HATE, like the person i am watching right now.

I don't like turning away from reality.

I too think we need to know what is happening. I was driving and thought that the emotions the speech was stirring weren’t safe for driving, so I’ll have to wait for “worst of” summaries.

Will get the full story then.

I'm sure they'll just be rather stunned at the start.

I can't take the BS since I get very angry and it consumes me. I am a passionate and emotional person and for my mental health I am choosing to not watch these speeches anymore, especially now.
