I miss having a sane person as President.

Never before has life felt like this. Even during the administration of George W. Bush, as much as I hated him, thought he was stupid, hated his policies and his neocon bullshiter enablers, and believed he stole his way into the presidency, I never thought he was insane.

I always knew that there would be another election and a chance to turn things around.

Life now feels as if we are all captives on a runaway train and there is no one who can make it stop.

All sense of normalcy is gone. No one really knows what the country will look like in four years

Then I thought possible. Hoping for someone to take charge but I don't think anyone can help Trump at this point.
