 I studiously avoided all the election night bullshit. My first hint was
when I looked at my email this morning. A conservative Catholic newsletter
had an article headlined 'Trump Wins: Let the Work Begin'.
 Looking at the state results was even better. Our three term Democratic
Senator lost by 13 points. Both Republican Representatives won handily, as
did the governor.
 To be honest, I didn't see it happening. Now to see if the Orange Jesus
learned from his last term and can avoid hiring backstabbers.

I am of mixed mind., There are many good things a Republican administration will probably do as long as he doesn't get involved.
And if it means the end of the 'progressive Liberal' social experiment, that's good too.
But he will wreak revenge and I am seriously worried about Ukraine.
If that is allowed to fall, Europe is threatened. And Europe doesn't currently have the ability to churn out armaments at the scale needed by itself just yet.
