    I understand being frustrated with the government, I understand struggling, I understand feeling like no one’s working to make life less challenging. I understand doing something crazy just to force some sort of change.

    However, I don’t think this election included an option to alleviate any of those things. To me, this felt like an election where the US decided on what type of country it wants to be, for their own future and to the rest of the world.

      Totally agree. Which is just another way Democrats fumbled the election. When people are struggling and your candidate says “I wouldn’t change anything” it’s not a good look.
