In my almost 80 years of life, yesterday takes the cake, I think.

72. I'm 41 and I was born under Reagan who was the complete

opposite of FDR. All I heard growing up was how great this country once was. I felt the for my whole entire life I was watching America's decline in slow motion from being born into Reaganomics to seeing 9/11 as a young adult and then the two wars Bush started and then the financial crisis and now Trump being president again. Granted there were some mirages along the way such as the 90's boom economy and Obama being elected as president that at times these mirages masked the decline of this country, but the decline was always there in my eyes. As weird as it sounds, I'm not in despair about what has happened in the last 48 hours with Trump but then again, I'm a cynical person by nature. I expected him to do what he did. The problem with this country is you have a combination of too many people who are racist and also who are brainwashed to worship the rich. It's the weakness of this country and I haven't seen this country being able to overcome this weakness in my lifetime and Trump is just a reflection of this weakness.

The only positive I take out of this is it's given me a new purpose in my life which is for the rest of my life I will be devoted against fighting against these corrupt elites. It will be a long battle, but we have to change the current messaging and narrative in this country that these billionaires are good people and that they are geniuses that care and know what is best for the public when in reality they are selfish and are reckless when it comes to the safety of the public. Not enough of people are convinced yet that these billionaires are evil which is one of the reasons why Trump was able to win.
