And we all live in Trump's America. Horrible truth.
Three little tiny bits of food for thought with that horrible truth:
- We just elected a doddering old man as President, and a VP who finished 16th in New Hampshire Dem primary and dropped out of the race on December 3. She didn't even make it to 2020.
- Yes, 72 million voted for Biden. 68.6 million voted for Trump, many of whom would have voted for Democrats in the past. I might suggest that instead of reviling the Deplorable Trump supporters, perhaps try to understand why they voted for a lying reality show huckster. And by that, I mean really understanding, not the bumper-sticker BS that gets spouted about Trump.
- While I wouldn't wish a pandemic on anyone -- obviously -- keep in mind that without a once-in-a-century pandemic, Trump likely wins in a landslide.
I doubt Trump would have won in a landslide. Besides, Trump is really good at finding things to screw up. He likely would have found something else.
