I’m heartbroken over the election results and can’t shake a feeling of impending doom. The shave was fine.

I’m more interested what motivated the voters. I have a hunch that most of the US still isn’t ready for a woman president. From a practical standpoint, the US stock market had a banner day. It will be important to benefit where possible over the next 4 years. OTOH, my son lives in France. Maybe it’s time to move :)

  We’ll have presidential elections in 2027, and the question is who will face Le Pen.

  Good question. I have a hunch about what didn’t motivate voters, and that’s an out of touch democratic party establishment addicted to corporate campaign donor cash.

    That’s certainly a part of it.

I’m not shocked, but severely disappointed. Right now seems to be the best time to support each other in Europe, as transatlantic relationships will come with a climate of uncertainty and stubbornness. My thoughts go out to the millions of Americans who are part of some minority group… Uncertain and dark times, sadly. 😞

  That’s exactly right. And better soon.

    Welp, our government coalition just threw the towel: german news here
    
    So yes, better very very soon. Don’t know when we’ll need to vote now…
