Just trying to figure out how to mentally and emotionally survive Republicans’ fealty and Trump’s candidacy. When he was elected the first time, I cried off and on for a week before I was able to wrap my head around it. I never thought we’d have to take a second ride on that horror-filled roller coaster. When you asked before what was the horror movie that stuck with us the most, the 2016 election is near the top...because it was REAL..a remake of Rosemary’s Baby. She says, at one point during the movie (when the devil is raping her) “This is no dream! This is really happening!!”

This, Donald Trump, as candidate for president and director of the republicans in Congress at this moment...is really happening...and we have nowhere to go but to the ballet box and then under the bed to wait for the storm of either election denialism or the next four years to pass.
