Frankly I am thoroughly disgusted by this years election garbage, these cess-pool occupying candidates, by far the worst choices in decades.
What do you mean decades? I can't in my wildest imagination believethat there were EVER two worse candidates. As has been said before: Clinton's biggest asset is that she isn't Trump, and Trump's greatest asset is the he isn't Clinton.

He has told you, O man, what is good ; And what does the LORD require of you But to do justice, to love kindness, And to walk humbly with your God.

Re: Feeling Post Election Trauma

I guess you didn't recognize the grief felt by the rest of us eight years ago and four years ago. Because we really don't exist or something. Now we are happy happy happy. Can't happen of course. Only leltists are human beings, only leftists' feelings count.
Why is it that the big division is between left and right. Isn't integrity important? I lean towards the right when it comes to politics but the number one thing I look for in a candidate is integrity. I'd rather have someone on the left with integrity than someone on the right without.
Frankly, I didn't have much respect for the integrity of either Clinton or Trump but frankly I did with Obama. Of course this is based on what I was able to discern on what they say and do publicly as well as media sources and not any personal contact.

As an outsider to all of this, it appears to me that the vast majority of Americans that voted for Trump didn't vote for him because they liked him or what he stands forever. I think that the vast majority of voters in that election on both sides voted against something, and in the case of those who voted for Trump they largely voted against the established ruling class of politicians from both parties. Nobody represented the establishment more than Hillary Clinton. People were able to close their eyes to all of Trump's shortcomings.
