Trump Cannot Win Because I Need My Life Back November 9th.

[msanthrope]

Seriously....I cannot keep refreshing this site and Twitter every 5 minutes just to see what stupid ass shit he's done for four years. I gotta sleep.

Christ. We'll have to assign shifts.

[JoePhilly]

1. My son and I are CONSTANTLY asking each other "Did you hear what that idiot said?"

It happens multiple times a day.

Neither of us is watching 24/7 ... but he and I are constantly tell each other something that the other had not heard yet.

I'll suggest to him we take actual shifts. Might be easier.

[msanthrope]

3. This is worse than 2008. This time I can't chill the fuck out. nt

[JoePhilly]

5. Its like watching a car wreck happen, then driving 100 yards, and wathcing another car wreck ...

... and then another ... and another.

[Cakes488]

19. Same here with my co-worker...except he's a Trashpot lover

[Gidney N Cloyd]

2. I can't go through another 4-8 years like with W.

[msanthrope]

4. W and Cheney were sane compared to this.

I wrote that. I actually wrote that.

[Cha]

6. LOL.. SMDH!

Hang in there kid.. it will be over soon.

Ekk it's already the 13th of October!

[salin]

18. I agree.

Though Cheney's ominous approach to the 2004 election was pretty awful.

7. difficult

I am finding it harder and harder to not refresh this site. I have to actively force myself to go do something for 10 minutes before coming back and refreshing. I have been a viewer of this site for a long time and just now this election finally signed up. But this place has been the only place I can find sanity.

Agreed on reliving what went down in 2000-2008. Cannot do that again.

8. I'm having PTSD flashbacks of Bush v. Gore. I'm not kidding. I reread the fucker for shits and

giggles this week.

[pnwmom]

9. I can't bear to think about that. Longest month ever.. n/t

[apcalc]

10. I refresh this site alot- so much valuable stuff here!

Really keeps me going forward positively!
You name it-comments, links, polls, videos, rants, personal stories, etc
I'm so grateful to the people of DU getting me through these times.

[senegal1]

11. Same issue here

I am a long time lurker and very occasional poster. Working on call banks and checking this site and Daily Kos multiple times a day.

[Fast Walker 52]

12. Seriously-- I really have to think there are more of us than of these people

13. Thank you. I need to know I'm not alone.

My husband is laughing at the whole circus because he's positive Trump has no chance of winning.

I'm a wreck.

[randome]

14. It won't end on Nov. 9th. There will be days of whining and loser-itis to watch!

THEN you can go back to your real life.

21. This is what I fear....Bush Gore redux. nt

[deathrind]

26. Yep.

This does not end Nov 9...

If HRC wins by a landslide there will be week/s of accusations and teeth gnashing.

If the election is close this will end up in court like bush v gore and who knows how long it will drag on for. Especially given the situation with SCOTUS.

[nolabear]

15. My therapist friends tell me hardly an hour goes by that it's not brought up.

I'm on sabbatical right now so not seeing people but I know a brazillion shrinks and it's apparently a source of great anxiety. Heck, it's what WE talk about. It's altering us.

And babies, we'd better make this turn out right.

[manicraven]

16. 1st post but long-time follower...

I feel the exact same way! I can't seem to stop refreshing or checking the TV numerous times a day, and my mom is exactly the same way. She and I were laughing this morning because we tell ourselves that today we won't pay any attention to this crazy election and just take a break, but within 30 minutes, we're checking to see if there's new drama. I have been so incredibly stressed out that I'm literally noticing my hair is beginning to fall out, and I don't sleep well. I can't wait for Hill to win, so I can recover.

[Cakes488]

20. When I'm out all day running errands I fully expect bombshells when I check the news when I get home

That should not be happening!! I haven't watched Bravo or non news shows in months! This is nuts!! Glad to see you posting!!

[apcalc]

29. Sometimes one of the first things my spouse

Says to me when I return from my morning workout....
" Wait'll you hear this..."

Some ridiculous Trump story....

Then I check DU!

[prayin4rain]

17. Me too! nt

[BumRushDaShow]

22. Ugh. Ain't that the truth.

[klook]

24. I'm about ready for this:

[ananda]

25. Sign on office door:

When in trouble
Or in doubt
Run in circles
Scream and shout!

[Ligyron]

28. I'm lovin' it!

Trump and his hilarious surrogates are non-stop entertainment. Their stupidities come so fast and furious it's almost impossible to get caught up. For progressive political junkies, this has got to be the funniest month on record and it's not even over yet.

And really, this is just the warm up act. When he loses we're really going to have a hard time breathing for another week or so as their tears of impotent rage push many over the edge and into jail.

And no, I'm not worried about whatever violence they threaten or actually commit because I'm guessing there won't be that much.

If we win back the Senate in the bargain they're really going to have something to get upset about for real 'cause my guess is that Hillary will not be as magnanimous as Barrack was in dealing with the GOP.

The main concern I have is that we must win in such large and overwhelming numbers that there's no possible way for them to spin it as "fraud". We need a clear mandate in order to pass the type of progressive legislation this country needs and which has been so long overdue.

[yardwork]

30. I'm right there with you. I've got carpal tunnel syndrome from this weekend.

[msanthrope]

32. I'm now reading Melanin Trump's lawyer's letter. It does not stop. nt

[Buckeye_Democrat]

31. Ugh, the same for me lately.

[Yavin4]

33. Idea for an iPhone App - Dumb Shit from Trump

Whenever Trump does or says something fucking incredibly sexist, racist, or plain fucking stupid, the App sends you an alert.

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

34. Honestly, I have spent far too much time on gawking at the trainwreck

that is Trump. I really need to take a break, but it's so hard to look away, much less walk away!

[JI7]

35. he is probably going to get even worse after that

but at least he will no longer be presidential candidate .

[raven mad]

36. I'll take the night shift.

I can't sleep anyway!

It doesn't get better than this for humor.
