I grow weary already of people I know sending me articles suggesting that I should attempt to have empathy for the downtrodden Donald voters - they perceive themselves as hurting, and that's what motivated their choice. In my line of work, empathy for people different than me is critical, and I absolutely believe I must be able to understand someone else's point of view.
Others have suggested this isn't going to be so bad. With all due respect, that is your coping mechanism in action right there. You are trying to manage your fear. But the odds are hight that it will be the worst 4 years America has seen in generations.
