I did all that I could to keep this from happening.... [View all]

If you advocated for Hillary Clinton, and/or you donated, and/or you voted...
If you believe you did the best that you could do, then rest at ease,
as you did what you could and the results aren't your fault! We will all get to watch our worse nightmare come true....
what we kept telling those with hard heads could happen if they didn't roll up their sleeves.

-----------------
For those KneeGrows who got hung up on the Super predator bullsht or chose to follow Cornell West, Nina (whatever her name is) an' them, or your White friends told you it didn't matter who won, or you decided not to vote to send a "message" to the "establishment", or you just didn't feel like voting cause you had better things to do...., or you weren't that excited voting for the White lady, so you didn't; enjoy the upcoming world that you helped build!

Will there be a revolution? Doubt it
And if there is, are you willing to die in it? Doubt it

Instead, many of your brothers and sisters will be going to private prisons, enriching the 1%, and possibly get used as labor to build the Trump Wall, if they aren't killed first in some unexplained way. Many of the people that you may know as the downtrodden will no longer have food stamps to feed their kids or preventive healthcare to keep them from dying earlier than they needed to. Young children will have their dignity assaulted and their safety in jeopardy, and will never come out of the circumstances they were born into, no fault of their own.

So close your eyes at night, after having kissed your kids or your loved one good night and understand this; not only did you make a difference for the very worse in the lives of millions, you get to watch everybody, including the innocent suffer. Enjoy the fruits of your self indulgence! You earned it! You won!

Just sayin'....
