Thank God that’s over!

It is the day after the day after the election and I am relieved that it is over.

The decisiveness of Trump's victory is also relieving. I think it would have been much worse if it had been drug out and eventually decided by the courts. The people have spoken and that has got to be respected.

I am sure that the Democratic Party will do its navel gazing, and self-immolation. I'm sure the  Republican party will do their Victory lap.

I really hope that Donald Trump and his administration will govern well. They have the White House, the Senate and a friendly judiciary, and they may yet even claim the House. They have the popular vote and the mandate from the people. God bless them, go get it.

I hope that I am proven wrong about the darker potentials of Trump's presidency and administration. I hope the “I told you so” never leaves my back pocket. And I hope that he is truly the disruptor that we need in American politics to change our direction as a society and as a global population in a better Direction.

I think this is a good place to leave it. I have a lot more on my chest, a lot more that I think is worth sharing, but it is important to me that this message comes across clearly.

“Gratitude for the systems that we have built to serve us functioning well, and gratitude for the peaceful transfer and application of power.”
