Good luck, Americans

Eight years ago, I remember going to bed thinking that tomorrow would be better. This time, I know it will be worse.

I do not think that I will ever be able to forget that so-called Christian Americans chose to vote for a serial adulterer whose campaign was driven by racism and sexism and whose business record is littered with profits made at the excuse of the average worker, rather than a woman.

Goodbye, Obamas. You remain people to admire and I am happy I saw you in the White House. I will remember you constantly over the coming up-to-four years.

The only good news today is that they have found survivors in that hotel in Abruzzo. That is cheering!

We're going to need a lot more than luck, I fear. 'Faux' christians, I call them. They follow the old testament, not the new. There is no Christ in the old testament, therefore they cannot be Christians, which means 'followers of Christ'. I keep trying to block the whole thing out of my mind, but it just doesn't work. I sign petitions, which is pretty much all I am capable of right now, and I am appalled that people, especially in government, are just standing by and seeming to give him a free pass. Some of the things he is doing are illegal, and no one is doing anything about that. No one. WTF, America? Seriously. Sorry, didn't mean to rant, but otherwise I'd have to run away screaming.
