Hello Darkness …

“Hello Darkness my Old Friend, I’ve come to talk to you again…” Simon & Garfunkel

Stunned Silence. Shocked Amazement. Dumbfounded. That pretty much sums up my reaction last night.
You may have read here my piece on Monday wherein I explained Trump’s Minority, and lack of needed Electoral Votes to win. So, it appears I was Wrong. (God, I Hate That). I’m not always right, just usually. I began to have a Bad Feeling about the night when the Rangers lost, (they’d been on an absolute tear and I’ve missed it all because of my Politics Addiction).
It’s small comfort that so many of us were Um, Incorrect. Also very surprising was President-Elect Trump’s, (God, That One Hurts too.), conciliatory Victory Speech, (yeah, This is Killing Me, good thing I got a Zoloft re-fill Monday).

I Really thought he didn’t have the numbers to win. His Post-election Speech (That doesn’t hurt as much…), spoke of unity, reconciliation, cooperation and I’m thinking – who the Hell is This and where’s Donald Trump? Despite the consoling tone, we cannot ignore his Campaign Promises: Muslim Ban, Great Wall of Mexico, NATO, Putin....
The Real Trumpist’s were back at it the next day – telling the White House Press Pool that there would be No Coverage of the meeting of Trump and President Obama, and The Obama White House saying ‘we’re still In Office here, there Will indeed, be Press-Pool coverage of the meeting’. So much for cooperation and reconciliation, it lasted about a day. 3A.M Wednesday Trump says he wants to be President for ‘All of Us….’ 9 P.M Wednesday he’s trying already to ban the Press from ‘The People’s House’.

About 21 Million People are on the verge of Losing Healthcare Insurance and there is No Plan from Trump to cover those people, many of whom voted for Trump. Yeah, Go Trump! He’s Promised to ‘Rip-up’ Trade Agreements and Treaties negotiated by the Obama Administration, and approved by a bi-partisan Congress. Yay!


It should be a very interesting 4 Years. Good Luck.
