I gotsta fess up in these days since the race was called (I obviously do not like this outcome, but it is what it is-- I had pretty much thought he would end up winning, but only with an electoral, and that the result would perhaps still not have even been called by now, etc)-- I have been fighting an increasingly intense sense of real contempt towards Trump voters, esp my evangelical coreligionists.  Trump has been prez before, he more or less no longer  even attempted to hide his true character, and his true plans for a second term, etc., and of course, he is an obvious overt criminal, convicted felon, etc.   And yet he did what he did on Tues, and people are memory-holing the facts, or just denying them.  And that behavior has condemned the rest of the country, indeed, given what the US is, more or less the whole world, to ___________????   It is just very hard for me to forgive or make allowances for this-- thoughts on how to proceed, to not give into these views, etc.?
