The Election

Words don’t do justice to how dissapointed I am in my fellow citizens.

I fear for many, but in particular, for my immigrant wife and non-white children.

America elected the first convicted felon to serve as president of the United
States. Trump - the twice-impeached, multiply indicted, once-defeated former
president overcame 34 felony convictions, 88 criminal charges, accusations of
insurrection as part of his attempt to overturn the 2020 election, civil
lawsuit judgments totaling more than a half-billion dollars, allegations by his
entire first-term cabinet that he's unfit to serve, his openly fascist
intentions, the overturning of Roe v. Wade, his failed response to the Covid-19
pandemic that led to more than 400,000 deaths from a virus he repeatedly
claimed was going to disappear, his repeated overt acts of racism, at least 26
public accusations of rape, kissing, and groping without consent, his promises
to prosecute his political opponents, and the threats encapsulated by the
Project 2025 agenda - to become the nation's 47th president. Trump is the
second president - and the first since Grover Cleveland in the 19th century -
to retake the White House after a reelection defeat. And, at the age of 78,
Trump is the oldest man ever elected president - breaking a record held by
Biden, whose mental competence Trump repeatedly savaged.
