So my mom had a test done today, and I went with her. I had promised myself not to watch

TV today, but as it turns out, every TV in the Hospital was showing the inaugural ceremony. Every clinic, every office, every test room, even on the hallways. But I could count with one hand the people who were paying attention.

Anyway, in the waiting room before my mom's test there were four women waiting. They were quite chatty, esp. one who talked, and talked and talked and talked and talked...you get my point. After every sentence she would laugh as though she was brilliantly witty. The others would interject phrases into Chatty Cathy's discourse, but at times they would talk over each other.

So Chatty Cathy says how trumputing couldn't get any major stars because everybody hates him for being a racist, ignorant, perverted moron with no experience. She hurls a few more insults and then says that the problem is that there was no difference between the candidates...WHAT THE...!?!?!?! The others agreed. She goes on that the only thing they did was bicker and never talked about the issues, how they were going to help people and don't you forget that Hillary is PRO-ABORTION! At that point the others almost jumped! yes, yes, She is a abortionist! And don't you know that baby boys are fully developed by the third semester!

Then this moron starts going off on Michelle saying that she was on TV dancing, so so classless, and how from now on she would get her wigs from Walmart.

I was shaking with anger. I had been dreading this day, and the least I needed was to be subjected to this stupidity. But I had to remind myself that I was there to support my mom, so I just bit my lip, and did allowed one of two tears escape, mourning this country...

3. Thank you, Cha. My guess is that they didn't vote, though their hatred and contempt

I am still astonished when I see that kind of ignorance. The only bright side is they see Trumpy for what he is..but still

Hope your mom gets answers, and speedy healing soon.

can't - trying to educate other effin adults on how to be good citizens and voters is beyond what I can handle right now.
And I'm ok with that.
