It's a difficult process, and thanks for the article. If you look at the numbers, most people in my demographic voted for Trump that second time.

For me, then, it goes beyond friendship. How do I trust an older white man my age who might do my taxes, or an older white male with my health, if they looked at insanity straight in the eyes and voted for it TWICE?

All of my professional services people are going to be people of color or women under 50. It is a harsh, sweeping generalization, but the bottom line is that if you are in my demographic, stats say that there is more likelihood than not that you voted for Trump. Twice. So I am officially a profiler. It is is what it is.

Yeah, the first time, I sort of get. There's this whole "not a politician" thing. But the second time? After four years of insanity and half a million needless deaths? Come on, people. This ain't rocket science.
