I found out Donald Trump had won the Electoral College while midstream in providing a urine sample for the emergency psychiatric staff of a New York City public hospital. The unlockable bathroom door in this unescapable wing was ajar, and I could hear the victorious Mike Pence’s sinister Sunday-school baritone taunting me with the truth from the hallway television.
For the preceding witching hours of election night, I had lain in a fetal position amidst a cast of anonymous men nursing their own crises, my hands clasped tightly over my ears. It wasn’t that I minded the howls of the guy nearby who was shackled to his cot and monitored by an unimpressed brood of policemen. Instead, I wanted to spare myself any word of the far greater insanity unfolding beyond the hospital walls.
Drained of tears, too tired to sleep, I stared at the fluorescent ceiling lights —which, indifferent to our suffering, remained on throughout the night — and endured the passing time by willing my thoughts to vanish into the dull glow. For a second, I imagined someone would burst in and proclaim, “It’s all right, Hillary won!” and I would bound out of bed, awoken from this nightmare.
This was all just a dream, right?
A while before, during the final hour of November 8, I had committed myself to institutional psychiatric care. A generation or two ago they would have said I was suffering a nervous breakdown: catatonic, plagued by involuntary jerking motions (my head furiously shaking “No! ”), speech patterns disjointed, weeping uncontrollably.

This HAS to be parody. Nobody, and I mean nobody is such a constipated narcissist as this, just not possible. And I should know. I am after all Napoleon.
wow, I really enjoyed this drivel....
He is the epitome of drooling liberals everywhere!
I hope he’ll be ok. He’ll never really be “healthy” unless he gets a brain/values/psyche transplant.
I hope the tender snowflake stays in the mental ward where he will get three free meals a day and a DEPENDS change on demand.
I think his roommate’s name is A.B. Normal.
I’m thinking he’s got a really good handle on that whole lamentating women thing.
Oh the things I could do if only I had “my hair lavishly coiffed into a confident pompadour”.
‘I want to die,’ I replied......Soooooo..Why don’t you?
The LIB idiot should have checked him self into a mental ward many, many years ago.
“Don’t come back, Ryan,” a nurse admonished as I crossed the red line toward an uncertain freedom. “You don’t belong here.”
That racist nurse probably voted for Trump!
Nice writing style. Maybe some pulp romance-suspense novels in his future. With Mike Pence as the powerful villain.
Why’d they let him out?
This fairy needs to return to the booby hatch.
NTOW

They shouldn’t have let him out.
OK, I am changing my tagline.
It's gone from 25% to over 50% certifiably (clinically) insane. I am dead serious; and most of them vote.
It's a race now, between normal people and the saving of the Republic, and the national suicide via the notion that the very young, under 12, the senile, the insane and the mentally impaired are entitled to vote.
I don't recall if the Federalist Papers discussed this touchy subject, and I can't help wondering if children, the senile, the mentally non-functional and the insane were allowed to and expected to vote between 1793 and 1835?
Does anyone remember ever seeing or reading about the subject?
I see the only option if this is not addressed : the destructive, social suicide of the Republic, or a rational relevant qualification for the right to vote, other than being able to breathe unassisted.
That’s hilarious!
HuffPo tried to frame this as an example of how horrible Trump’s election was - it drove this sensitive soul to the brink of insanity (and that’s how many of the commenters on the HuffPo site view it). But it points up something far different - that the liberal cause attracts a great many very troubled people in need of psychological help.
