I wish I had some encouraging sentiment to share, Lou. I would say “at least he can’t be elected again”, but with his greasy little fingers on the levers of power even that might not be true. And saying “only half of American voters voted for him” is not exactly a positive thing to say: when you know that every second adult you see thought he was the best choice, it really makes you question humanity.

Oh well: America is strong. With some luck whatever happens over the next four years will help the nation learn to be better.
