Well, it has happened. Apparently, there weren’t enough of us to see the forest for the trees.

As much as it is hard to take the loss, we’ll see if those who saw fit to help put Donald Trump in office will approve with what he’ll do in his first six months in office. And what are they going to do about it then?

A grave error has occurred by putting a convicted felon in the White House, and a man who has no regard for law. For him the law is simply a stumbling block to doing what he wants. If one recalls, he’s very good at that. Lest we forget, he should to be in jail right now.

I think we will see early in Trump’s takeover just what we’re in for. I’m just not expecting anything to be very much better anytime soon, given that things were never as bad as he claimed they were (e.g., saying that criminals and terrible people are running the country now). No administration in office is at fault for all that goes on in the country (e.g., the cost of living is actually due to corporate greed, not the government). I also hope that we won’t be hearing any more rhetoric regarding the accuracy of our electoral system, now that he’s won.

I’m glad the election is over, but what lies ahead?
