Dear Americans, how do you go back to normal after such an election campaign? - eviltoast

The atmosphere is so heated, and the statements are getting more and more extreme. Let’s just assume Harris wins the election. After a campaign like this, how could you ever have a normal relationship with your pro-Trump neighbor/father-in-law/Uncle/Barber or what ever again?

    I was the generation we were hopeful for. All we’ve done is stall. We got Obama elected… and that’s about it.

    We need a plan that’s better than “wait it out”. That one tends to fail.

      I didn’t preclude continuing to take action. I voted for Harris and will continue to vote for the most sane candidate in each election, primary and general. Same for down ballot.

      Never once said the plan was to wait it out. I simply said the insanity perpetrated by the previous generations looks to be on borrowed time — an obvious assertion probably, but an assertion nonetheless.

      Maybe my intent is cleared up now.
