Sometimes I wonder what I did before I was obsessed with Trump and the shit show that is American politics. I must have had a lot of spare time. Because I reckon that for the past nine months or so, since Trump became the Republican nominee in the Presidential election and went up against Hilary Clinton, I have spent hours every week consumed by it.
On the day he won and for a little while after that, days maybe, I was too shocked and horrified to consume anything. I could barely speak about it. It felt personal and terrifying and just so… unfair. Everything I thought I knew about how the world works, everything I taught my children and was brought up to believe – stupid, awful people who are liars and scammers and blustery, arrogant blowhards don’t prosper, they get what they deserve – well, it turns out they can also end up as the leader of the free world.

I have to admit, one of the best things about Trump winning has been watching the left and the feminists just lose their minds.. fleeing to their safe spaces with puppies and playdough and free hugs to help them deal with the fact that something didn't go their way. It's really very entertaining 😂
It's too depressing to analyse.
