over these comments. I wonder how he will handle it. Will he be appalled at how angry and hostile his buddies are and realize that was who he used to be?

if the erstwhile tRump supporters have it worse than we do. They built a circle of allies, shared a lot of feelings with them, and now they are going to be ostracized.

who have had second thoughts but refuse to say anything for fear of losing their friends? I know there is trumpgrets where they can post, but that's not the same as in-person relationships.

As I was typing it I had "five words" in the subject line and took one last look before posting and went "oops...six."

But those are indeed the words.

President Obama didn't just endorse Hillary. He (and Michelle) campaigned long, hard, and enthusiastically for her.

They both said that there was no one more qualified for the job. Why didn't they listen?

He told us Hillary would continue the path he started, so, why would anyone who thought he did a good job not vote for her?

The only answer I can think of is sexism
