I pulled into the full parking lot before work and walked to the school to place my vote. I knew that I was surrounded by Trump supporters, but quickly and quietly I placed my vote for Hillary. Knowing that my vote would surely be added to the overwhelming Hillary supporters outside of this Trumpland that I call home.
I had a good day at work anticipating the evenings events. Finally the election would be over and I needed to remember to buy a paper the next morning announcing our country's first female president.
The states started slowly roll in the results. We all know how it goes from there.
How did we get here? How is it possible that a man who insulted everyone except white men during his campaign get elected? How did a man using foul language and "locker room" talk against women possibly get women to vote for him?
I'm not sure.
He knew exactly what to say. My only hope is maybe he said all he needed to say to get elected and maybe now he'll throw all that nonsense away.
Otherwise our country, in my opinion has been thrown back at least 70 years of progress.
He says we'll make the country great again. Only if that means being able to be racist, sexist and homophobic.
I'm looking forward to seeing what actions he takes. I can only hope his whole election campaign was a big show.
We'll see.
Until Next Time
