I cannot believe we have another 3 years and 10 months to deal with this loopiness.. I thought I would be sitting back now.. and just cheering on the next group of Democratic locals who call, and get elections together etc... but with that lying goofball that now sits in the most powerful chair in the world, I have to stay in the game.. ish!! Nobody can step back now..

It is so opposite of who we are it is hard for us to believe it is true.
But it is.
I hug YOU!

I am right there with you. I consistently walk around with a lump in my throat! Do you know, I haven't even been able to let loose with tears. I have raged, but no tears. I think I'm still too traumatized. It's PTSD. The night of his joint session speech I did what I did on election night: overcome with fatigue (almost like a vasal vagal panic response) I just went to bed and trembled!
We MUST continue to fight this asshole and BELIEVE that these disclosures, Rachel's research, Rep. Schiff's investigation...that all will amount to trump and his team landing in jail sooner than later.
I do become paralyzed at times. The group zeitgeist here is critical to my survival right now. I am gradually, unconsciously almost, shedding myself of "friends" and other contacts who don't see what is going on as I do. It isn't that they must agree with me on all politics, or be a Dem/progressive...just see and callout the travesty and complete obliteration of every decent thing this country has stood for that is going on in our country.
