      Yesssss! For the first time since our President Obama had to leave office ? I feel HOPE! We can work together to make things right, and God willing, make TRUE and LASTING strides in eradicating systemic racism. We have our work cut out for us, because sadly… it’s everywhere? With starting to get representation in the government that reflects our SOCIETY, instead of a bunch of old white men, we can make some measurable change! Enough is enough… We’re ALL the same and I am sick of seeing people treated differently because of the color of their skin. It’s just WRONG.

    Now all we need to do is get that orange sitar’s out of the White House without any serious violence. The best quote of the week was Anderson Cooper stating “ The President appears to be an obese turtle laying on his back, flailing in the sun”. Looking at the latest poll numbers, personally, I feel a large weight taken off of me. I know he’s not gonna disappear, but we won’t HAVE to be GASLIGHTED by him anymore!!!!!! ?✌️??????????

We still have his childish tantrums to get through for a couple of much and be assured he will do all he can to fuck the country up and cause more trauma.

    I LOVE that Fox was the first to call it. And that they did it when he was on the golf course (what a gift to the residential staff.)

    I’ve cried several times today. Got very teary reading Martin Luther King III’s tweet regarding how much Kamala Harris’ being vice president means to little black girls like his daughter. That they can aspire to anything.

    Then MSNBC showed that clip of Joe Biden hugging that young man who lost his father in the Parkland. Tears again.

      When Biden walked on stage tonight wearing his mask, I had a series of flashbacks of some of the times Trump mocked Biden for that — Memorial Day, as Trump mingled with veterans UNMASKED; the debate when Trump was saying “Every time I see him, he’s wearing the biggest, like HUGE mask” come to mind…

    I think the biggest comeuppance for Trump would be if Twitter closed his account the day he leaves office. Like a kid who gets their crayons confiscated for writing on the walls.

    It’s going to be interesting to hear what some of his fellow Republican (I use “fellow” loosely, because Trump is not a true Republican) associates REALLY THOUGHT of him and his chicanery.

    How charmed I was at last night speeches.
    As I read, not many conservative folks have chimed in – I’m a proud Independent, have voted both ways since 1988.

    Because of the grief of my husbands early Pre Covid passing – I didn’t get involved, hell waking up on days I was able to sleep … feeding my 4 pups was much all I could do.

    On another thread I mentioned I didn’t vote, grief took over my civic responsibility to register in a new town & hell I was just hopeful others can pick up the slack. I had already started self isolation before it was asked.

    2 Observations:
    1- If we can vote early, we should count early. The delay was/is embarrassing.
    2- Glad to see dogs back in the White House. This may sound stupid/reckless/dumb – but my mom told me never trust someone who doesn’t like a dog. It’s been my gauge of character for 30+ years.

    Am very hopeful, I know many around me are upset – very conservative, but I know my husband is giggling somewhere. He was conservative, with a healthy liberal Position on social issues. He walked his sister down the aisle to marry her wife & he quipped, it was his proudest moment.

    To those reading, not all conservatives are evil – think new administration will succeed if inclusion is met.
    Again hopeful, and as a woman – Kamala looked presidential last night.

      I am very sorry for your loss. That’s a difficult thing to overcome. I agree that Republicans/Conservatives are not evil. I do no think that Donald Trump was representative of a great majority of conservatives. He appeals to the far right fringe loonies. We have a bi-partisan system. You get to support one or the other. I have friends and family who are moderate Republicans who switched, because they just could not, in good conscience, align themselves with his demented ideas of what America was supposed to be. The rest stayed true to the party because they are loyal like that.

      I think the picture of America, right now, is mostly moderate on both sides. Now that Trump is gone, we will NEVER venture to the fringes of the far right again. We may, eventually, find ourselves heading towards far left, but it will take awhile to get there. In some ways, we have Trump to thank for resetting and redefining our politics. The right will now be what was once the middle as the scale progresses, ever so slowly, to the left of left.

      I have loved ones in the conservative zone who are hurting with this loss. I hurt for them. They lost, but they are still human, and I love them. I wish for the new leadership to be better than the old one. I hope they demonstrate compassion where the old one did not. It is the difference between the two parties and I’d like to see that it in motion. I want us all to huddle under extended arm of Joe Biden. I hope my conservative friends and family will be smart enough to come in from the rain. ?

        Thank you Dizzy, it has truly sucked.
        Navigating a new life as a 51yr old widow during a pandemic is daunting. 25yrs with your best mate & during election season which he loved … well will / have to adjust.

        I come from NYC, Jewish/Italian Roman Catholic….I’ve got personal guilt built in, lol/ But raised in a Democratic family.

        My husbands family, true Red Texans, devote Christians. Could never get on board/some yes, with Trumps language.
        Along with some friends, they were not disturbed by his speech.

        I did get it, worked my whole life in a male dominated arena.
        Was use to naughtiness, Something young woman now …. might not have to deal with. But all my 5ft 110lb self, knew how to knock a dick in the dirt – with language, as an ex federal agent , then went into tech dominated world, …., I never though I couldn’t.

        Irony was not lost on me, with my husbands family members, who were in favor of Trump – but got upset , by my sailor mouth over the years. My Sicilian father used the F WORD, as a noun, verb, pronoun…what have you.

        My husband and I were a childless couple, we chose as partners to thrive in our endeavors & travel – experience ….. I know, in my heart he is happy.
        He is happy his sister and others can love who they want. Without the fringe saying differently.

        He’d also , as we come from military families – not disrespect , those who when needed to call For help show up.

        So puppies & wine for me today, , Jewish/Italian woman from Texas….best my wishes for our future, …

              I keep my grief private, was actually shocked I spoke about my loss – maybe because your site provides an open place to share.

              I was very lucky, but I am am still trapped in trauma – as I was the one who found the love of my life, heart attack in his sleep.
