my stress will be right here with me, because it's due to several other things.

It's true I will be relieved to have it over; everyone else's election-related stress, hate, rabid frothings, anxiety, and yelling IS draining. But then, it will just be rabid demands for blind, lock-step support if she wins, along with dreadful predictions of falling skies from the other side, or constant wailing, moaning, and gnashing of teeth if she loses, along with a big rush of gleeful hate set free on the other side. It's not as if political stress will be gone.

But stress about the election is just a small part of my life. Yes, I want to see Trump go down. Since I don't do fear, and don't do hate, and the things that would bring me inspiration and joy aren't on the table, I'm simply not worked up about it.

exhilaration, celebration and relief at the onset, but it will come back all too soon.

I fear what Trump has released.
