I really want this to be over with. Sick of all the arguments.
I just want a President who has experience, intellect, respects women, is pro-choice, has a proven record and respects the rights of immigrants. And supports the right to love whoever you love.

There is one candidate who actually does believe in facts and science.

(111,305 posts)I voted. I should no longer be subjected to desperate ploys from that irritating bag of utter corruption known as Trump. It's over, you bile spewing fraud, so go away.
I just want a president who knows what the job is and intends to do it.

(1,395 posts)I was stunned after 2000, which spurred me into a higher level activism. I was angry after 2004. But this time, I am close to clinical depression. The cult of celebrity and low information voters and crushingly high levels of racism and misogeny have delivered us the most unqualified, inappropriate, unable candidate in history. And the most prepared and able candidate ever. And that there is even any question of who will win. And the fact that when Clinton wins (in all likelihood), she will have to battle republican obstructionism from day 1. Are we ungovernable?
I'm heartbroken.

(1,429 posts)wait until after Sec. Clinton takes office, especially if we do not take back the Senate. And if you think 2017 and 2018 are bad, wait until 2019, when the Rethugs quite possibly could have SIXTY seats in the Senate after the 2018 midterms (especially if they retain control this election) and over 250 in the House.
I can honestly see the Rethugs fuckers flat out refusing to fill any Sumpreme Court vacancies. Especially if the next one to leave or die is Ginsberg. They will argue that 9 justices are not required by law and that the court has lost one conservative (Scalia) and one progressive (Ginsberg) so now its "fair" again.
And the Rethugs in the House are already planning impeachment attempts from day one. It's going to be BRUTAL hate and division I fear like nothing we have seen since the Civil War times .

(25,464 posts)Then back to the same or worse grind. At least for now, there is Rethug infighting over Trump.
After Nov 8th, I do expect another "GOP autopsy", which will be amusing.

(4,309 posts)It boggles my mind that he has any support at all.
