First and foremost Thank God! We're not going to be subjected to four more years of having to endure the presence of the most disgusting, harmful slob in the country!
That was the good news. The bad news is that as of this writing it is not quite over. There are court challenges and recounts to go through
but I'm confident that it will eventually work out.
What puzzles me most about the election results is how it could be so close. I just can't understand how so many people still support Trump. After everything he has said and done on top of one lie after another, his base actually grew. I'll leave it to sociologists and historians to sort that out. I'm sure I won't live long enough to find out the answer!
Finally, you know all those maps the news people are always posting to show how the country shapes up in terms of red vs. blue? I posted two of them below. They both tell a very different story. For example if you look at the first one you'd think nearly the entire nation was red-meaning for Trump. But that's very misleading because that's a geography map. There are relatively few people in that section of the country that is solid red. Buffalo and prairie dogs don't vote.
Now look at the second one. That shows how the voting shaped up in terms of population. Now you see much more blue.
Well, anyway, the next few weeks are going to be interesting. Trump is not going to go quietly. OK, who cares? Just go!!
