I Felt Guilty This Morning

I want to preface this post by saying that this is not hyperbole or an exaggeration. When I woke up this morning, I had that feeling like I did something wrong last night. I felt a sense of overwhelming guilt. When I was younger, I had a few mornings when I woke up feeling like that. Nights where I drank too much, got too rowdy, said something I shouldnt have, or one time drove when I shouldnt have. I felt like I had strayed from my vaules and definitely did something that I should have never done.

After watching Trump yesterday, between his "debate prep" and his psychotic debate performance I seriously feel guilty for actually watching that. Its like standing around watching a the aftermath horrible car accident or seeing my neighbors house burn down. I feel awful having seen that. It was a horrendous spectacle and almost traumatizing.

Trump is truly a sick and disgusting person. It takes a lot to throw me off but apperently last night did.

The safety of the world depends on him losing, and, preferably, losing big, next month.

can't handle that.

Shows how strong Hillary is.. bet she's glad she just has to get on stage with him for one more time, though.

I kept hoping it would end soon. And then the last question...what do you admire about your opponent? But she didn't hesitate...his kids (horrible as they are they are publicly better than him)

In the end, he admitted she defeated him...he admired her strength and stamina and that she took things to the end.

She was a tower of human dignity and strength and he showed himself to be a monster without conscience. He slithered from the room and Hillary turned them all...one by one.

but the asshole would never shut up.

So I turned it off and listened to music.

The guy doesn't just make me want to puke, he makes me want to get a baseball bat

they replay so much of him -to prime their debates and news lines - hayes, maddow etc etc - even had to stop O'donnell - for now - I was screaming at the TV..

No debate watching..I stream Netflix series and movies - right now I am really into The Walking Dead..LOL - and every time I see a zombie, which is often, I see a trump supporter...those of yu who are familiar with the series, know, the zombies don't last long..LOL..

Be well, no more trump for you..

Miss Universe segment.

Can anyone fill me in on what Trump said about his near week-long meltdown over that?
