America is going to be paying a heavy price for putting the sociopath back into the WH. I will never forget or forgive
the country of my birth for what they have done.
A lot of people will be hurt, and lives will be destroyed before this is over.
Roy Cohn, Joe mccarthy's henchman attorney was the sociopath's mentor.

2. It's a depressed feeling when you are out-and-about. Restaurants, Mall, Movies and much more....
...and you look at other people, knowing that around 50 percent are disgusting, uneducated Nation destroyers.
I shouldn't feel that way. Time might repair feelings.

3. It sure is. I go out of my way to avoid anyone I know who supported the sociopath, and that includes relatives, and I
refuse to engage with them in any discussion of politics or the sociopath.

In the real world, lawyer Cohn represented Fred Trump Sr.'s company in a couple of 1970s lawsuits, one brought prior to Donald became the company's CEO. Cohn died in 1986. Donald Trump probably met Cohn, probably multiple times, but "mentor" is ridiculous and a super-weak attempt at guilt-by-association. Most DU-Denizens probably lapped up that bit of counter-factual moronicity, though.
Once again, DU-Denizens ignore a simple fact. Trump was President 2017-2020, and the country was doing rather well until a certain virus imported from China arrived. Even then Trump managed pandemic response very well, like the senior project manager he is, and the country was already recovering from states' over-reaction when Biden was elected.

I can't imagine having this mindset. I could give a whit who strangers (or even my neighbors) vote for and it's the LAST thing that would ever cross my mind when I'm out and about. What a sad, pathetic way to live.
I live in a rural area of WA where pretty much nobody puts bumper stickers in their cars although I occasionally see a "F*** Inslee" car sticker and I agree with how those people vote. :-)

When I walk into a mall or a Target I know that around 3 out of 4 adults I see voted for Harris, and/or Biden, and/or Hillary ... and I don't particularly care.

Who wants to tell them that they are part of that "around 50 percent"?

Both QFT. Yes, I'm very interested in politics, follow fairly closely, and enjoy engaging in discussions and debates about political issues. But it's not my entire identity, not do those thoughts eat up my every waking moment (maybe sometimes a few too many moments, but not very often). And unless someone is advertising their political feelings with bumper stickers, t-shirts, hats, ect, I'm not putting any thought into assuming how they voted.
So much of the division we are seeing now is because people make their ideology their identity, and then view the world as a zero sum game with only two sides. When their side doesn't win an election, or get a bill passed, these folks feel that they are losing that game, when life really just goes on and the world adjusts.

Hey DUer JohnSJ, 76,789,205 Americans (as of right now) says a hale and hearty "f#&k you" to you and the other septic sludge at DU.

A heavy price...yeah. sure. Gas prices are already going down, post Trump landslide.

Like in his first term?
Peace.
Prosperity.
Rule of Law.
Respect in the world.
Oh what will we do.

I dread to think of the price we'd have paid for a second Biden term or a Harris administration.
