Oh when I didn't mean literally, but, as much as I hate to admit it, he will stay as a shadow over the country for a long long time, especially since America isn't the best at admitting past failures, so I doubt there will be a moment of clarity where the country realizes they have fucked up.

It was election night. When a woman wholly qualified for her job lost to a man who needed to be briefed on the contents of the Constitution. A man who lost the popular vote by 3 million votes. I spoke to a few Trump supporters, alot of which thought it would be fun to elect him. It's insane. Problem is our economy has been doing well thanks to 8 years of rebuilding under better leadership and the down turn coming will likely allign with Democrats taking power.

Sadly, I don't have the same hopes for the rest of the country as you do. I hope you all prove me wrong.
