several, both friends and family. i live on the west coast. none of them are serious, just processing as their reality is rugged from under them.
I honestly do not understand how people are surprised by the outcome. They are incredibly out of touch with reality.
Its so weird if they live on the west coast. Do they not understand state vs Federal? Do they actually think Trump can just dictate?
One of my colleagues said democracy is dead. I replied, well if this is all it took to kill it, it's been dead for a long time. Maybe it just doesn't work?
They said maybe. It's all so absurd. But it's like a car accident. I can't look away.
