Well, I have decided to ignore all of politics and the kabuki theatre that it is. My life will now revolve around me, my family, my friends and just making it day by day. Elections don't matter, so I will no longer invest my time or my energy. I have finally entered the realm of "learned helplessness" and no longer give a shit! People are not waking up and I'm very weary of trying to help them do so. I now accept that the America I knew and loved is dead to my children and grand-children. They will have to make it as best they can. Never thought I would get to this point. Very sad today.
