Valerie Jarrett: I still haven’t accepted Trump is president
Washington Examiner ^ | April 02, 2019 | Caitlin Yilek

Valerie Jarrett, a senior White House adviser to former President Barack Obama, writes in her new book that she still hasn’t accepted President Trump won the 2016 election.

"Since the night Donald Trump became president of the United States, I’ve been going through the five stages of grief, sometimes all five in the same day,” Jarrett writes in Finding My Voice: My Journey to the West Wing and the Path Forward.

"In the beginning, denial and anger were high on the list; I still haven't embraced acceptance,” she writes.

Jarrett, a longtime adviser to Obama and his wife Michelle, said that Trump's unexpected victory against Hillary Clinton felt “like a punch to the stomach.”

“Obviously we were surprised by the outcome of the election. It kind of was like a, I’m not sure what the right analogy would be, but like a punch in the stomach, let’s say. Soul-crushing might be another description,” Jarrett said at the time. “But that’s the democracy that we have: The people get to decide and the elections matter and we have to get about the business of doing our job.”

Grief, regret, despair, fear of hanging for sedition and treason.

0bama launched his Presidency with a birth document, and concluded with a dossier.
Everything in between was equally fake, phony, criminal and corrupt

“ValJar, your boss was an illegitimate usurper.”

I’m thinking that the horse was ValJar; Obama was the cart.

“Allah did not create man so that he could have fun. The aim of creation was for mankind to be put to the test through hardship and prayer. An Islamic regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Islam. There is no humor in Islam. There is no fun in Islam. There can be no fun and joy in whatever is serious.” — Ayatollah Khomeini
