Didn’t take much for me to get into a mildly uncomfortable moment with a Hillary supporting co-worker today. Maybe I breathed too deeply, maybe I looked left instead of right. Whatever, this sad kid was immediately on the defensive with his feathers ruffled.

If the situation were reversed, I doubt many of us would be in a good mood. Hopefully we’d be more mature about our disappointment.

A lot of penetrating gazes from (female mostly) colleagues. They are utterly convinced that Trump ran on a racist, misogynist, xenophobic platform. Utterly convinced. Most comments have been a long the lines of "I now know the truth about my country . . . it's never been what I believed it to be."

I would love to let them know that those were my sentiments exactly when 8 years ago the American people voted for socialism and the fundamental transformation of America. Not that they would get it . . . they only saw a black guy.
