The country is so ruined by racism and sexism that it is beyond saving

Even if the blue wall holds and Harris wins. That a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist who us unqualified and incapable of doing the job is even a legitimate candidate because white males won't vote for a black woman because she wouldn't go on Rogan podcast or whatever excuse for their racism and sexism they come up with us just pathetic.

That any Latino would vote for trump is beyond me.

I can only hope that some firmer British Commonwealth country needs someone in science education and assessment in my job skill set.

And just got a text from a friend in KC asking where in Canada we were moving.

It is reprehensible!
I shall not abide within the country long should it go the 2016 way. I cannot.

I'll be having a yard sale and will be vacating the country soon. Hope I can still find some friends here.

If it goes badly for us, a lot of us are in trouble. Maybe we can buy a large tract of land somewhere and start a DU colony or something?

My ears are ringing.

To be the same way I imagine. Squeaky wheel gets the grease and I think the cult mentality and brawn attracts weak ignorant people. They just need to buy a trump flag to fit in.

get the red out

Anyone who voted for him is truly wretched. I am tired of saying we accept them, that they were just sucked into a cult. For what little time the Nazis leave this 60 year old white woman while they destroy those good people ahead of me on their list, I am going to hate like I have never hated before and enjoy every minute of it. Then JD will get to us childless cat (and dog) women and put us on the streets. I will hate until I die and join the truly good folks who they got to first.
