It just gets worse every day and it's unbelievable to me that it's still going on. Have we ever had a president - of either party - who did nothing but lie?? Not to mention the growing list of offenses and unsavory news that we hear about every time we turn on the TV...

I was watching the returns on TV and fell asleep on the couch. I woke up at about 3am to see Trump standing there with his entire creepy extended family. I figured this had to be a nightmare and I'm still waiting to wake up!

I actually held an Election Night Party at my place. Needless to say, it broke up early. Everyone was in shock. The champagne I had on ice to welcome our First Female President was never opened and sits in my fridge to this day. Now I'm saving it for my Impeachment Night Party.

Not only that he actually became POTUS, but that with everything he's done and continues to do, that he's actually still around! We've previously had some presidents we disagreed with and a few we didn't like at all, but nothing like this ever before!

Hoping you get to crack open that champagne real soon!

His uneducated stupid gullible supporters voted for the myth of himself that he created.
