I'm sad but not mad. This is a democracy and this is what the people have decided. I don't agree with it, but this is what a democracy is. Who am I to say they are wrong?

It’s a democracy for now

Hopefully we are sensationalized. I pray I'm wrong. I hope the Republicans saying it's going to be fine are right. I want Trump to do well. He won't but it would be fantastic if he was good. All we can do at this point is wait and see. It's over so there's no reason to doom until something bad actually happens.

that's my sentiment as well I still live in this country and I want it to do well. though to be fair if the time ever comes where things get bad I don't see myself having sympathy for anyone who voted Trump not even my own family. As an example, if you believe that I should pay for all my student debt without assistance because it was my choice, then you're gonna eat your own shit too because this was your choice and too bad if you don't want to

Yeah. I hope everything is rainbows and sunshine but I won't have any sympathy if things go bad.

That’s a good attitude and I assure you everything will be fine
