Why am i shocked. I shouldn't be.

Everything that has happened since trump became president was easily predicted. I knew it would result in complete chaos. I knew he would make big mistakes. I knew he would harm our democracy. I knew he would destroy our american values. I knew he would lie over and over again. Why am i shocked?

I guess it's because millions of americans don't care what trump does. They don't care about our democracy, our values. They don't care he lies.

The 2018 election is going to tell me a lot about the american people. Will they come to their senses or do they continue the destruction of the very idea of america. The soul of america is on the ballet in 2018.

1. Same here

It was not unexpected; however, I am in a shock. Feel very strong discomfort like I felt when the last presidential election result was in.

It feels so wrong. To imagine something bad and to experience something in real life are two very different thing.

2. People can be shocked because its against rational thinking, few people are surprised because RedDon

... has not been a rational person so far.

3. I would like to add this.

People are comparing trump to nixon and watergate. I believe trump is much more dangerous. Nixon tried to cover up his crimes and he got caught.

Trump is also trying to cover his crimes but at the same time trump is trying to change the very idea of america. Trump does not believe in democracy.

4. I think that...

maybe The Hague might get involved eventually since this is international high crimes and could extrapolate to "against humanity" at some point.
