"This win wasn't as stunning as 2016, but if feels far moe serious." As @kkdumez notes, most Americans have witnessed the "unhinged speeches, the shocking vulgarity", and the frightening plans to use his power for his benefit, and that is what they chose. https://t.co/ZGaARyheVn
"... a friend asked what she should tell her kids this morning. I'm about to wake mine up. I plan to tell them to be brave, to tell the truth, and to care for those around them, just like before."
I don't have words to describe the sadness, frustration, despair, etc that I feel right now - So I'll share some from @kkdumez: "This win wasn't as stunning as 2016, but it feels far more serious."

I am troubled by Trump, but I am even more troubled by the people who claim to be Christians that defend him…
@Franklin_Graham@seanfeucht@robertjeffress@charliekirk11
Trump is vulgar and mean.
He has made a vocation out of the seven deadly sins, and a mockery of the fruits of the Spirit.
Trump needs Jesus.
And we need a new President.
We shouldn’t allow our middle school kids to act like this… let alone someone aspiring to be President.
You cannot follow Jesus and Trump.
Choose Jesus.
“Why don’t you post more against the left?”
Both sides have their evils, but there isn’t a massive political movement on the left using Jesus as a mascot to justify demonizing rhetoric and discriminatory policies that contradict Jesus’ teachings.
This matters to me as a pastor.
It strains my imaginative capacities to the breaking point to understand how any woman - or even anyone who loves a woman - could consider voting for this malignant misogynist.
Jesus worked for, walked alongside, healed, fed, cared for, made room, amplified voices, entrusted his legacy, and loved intentionally those on the margins of society.
To follow Jesus is to do the same in every margin of our society.
"The rhetoric amounts to a modern-day libel and form of state sanctioned terrorism against vulnerable groups, all the while giving Trump and his white supremacist and proto-Nazi allies a platform to vilify immigrants, people of color, and others they deem disposable." Read this!
For voters who value public schooling, oppose school privatization, want adequately and equitably funded public schools, and know that reforming the Child Tax Credit is the most efficient way to ameliorate child poverty, there is no choice in this election.
@oksde@prageru Oh dear. For anyone not familiar PragerU, read "PragerU Ambushes Our Schools" from @RethinkSchools.
"For PragerU, the climate crisis is as unreal as systemic racism."
"Behind PragerU’s smiling facade lies an agenda that is vicious and terrifying.” ⬇️

As usual, @JanResseger provides an insightful and important critique and discussion of the dangerous rhetoric being used to describe public schools (and education in general). An important read: https://t.co/KwRS1pXqem via @janresseger
Ideally we would not need reminders like this, but sadly we do. Thank you @mrobmused for sharing this reminder and demonstrating yet again why JD Vance and Trump are not fit for office.
