You are feeling a bit better by now. I truly do feel your pain. I live in a Battleground state, but my area is still a bit too red for me. I can't even stand to watch his speeches or his commercials anymore. I am so perplexed as to how this nasty, evil man can have such an influence over so many people and how they will pull anything out of their butt to defend him. But I guess that's how the fascists took over.

Thankfully I am quite introverted, even though you would never know it. I love being alone or just with my spouse and our pets. I am feeling disappointment and stress because of having to totally back away and isolate myself from people I have known for years. Broken relationships are never fun and all because of this jackass and his henchmen.

Last night we noticed one of our neighbors has a bumper sticker on her car that says Trump 20/20 and stop the b*******. This person doesn't even watch the news or follow politics and is by no means the brightest crayon in the box so we were totally confused. Then we have the one who walks around with his Trump t-shirts. Ugh!
