suspending blog

I was really looking forward to a Kamala Harris presidency, but the Orange Menace somehow ended up on top. The joy is gone, replaced by nothing but dread. I'm too old now to dive into this newfound muck and retain my sanity. Cannot watch any news broadcast because it's all about Trump, all the time. He is already pulling illegal shit, but the Democrats are likely to do nothing about it. Several races this time around were very close, but there is no hint of fighting or recounts. Hell, Kamala puts out a picture of her laughing playing with her nieces. That's all well and good, but isn't it a little early to send a message that you are over the election and let's get back to "normal?"

There is no more "normal" with Donald Trump in the White House. I don't even want to list all the ways he is looking to destroy this country. It's too depressing. All that excitement with Kamala, all those rallies, she took the lead in most polls, Trump's own campaign was admitting that he was going to lose. And he sweeps EVERY swing state? GOP now has 53 Senate seats and they took the House. Not to mention the thoroughly corrupt Supreme Court, who conveniently granted him immunity from just about everything, just before he steals the election.

It's too much. I don't know what we are going to do, but I want to get the hell out of Texas and move to a blue state. But I don't think we'd be safe even there. And my wife has deep family ties to this area of Texas and does not want to move. 

This situation is about as ugly as it gets, and yet millions of Americans voted for this habitual liar and cheater. 

The only thing I can think of at this point is to suspend the blog once again. Maybe I will start it back up IF America returns to a semblance of normalcy.

Good luck everyone, we are going to need it.
