It sure is a good thing Hillary wasn't elected
Can you imagine what a mess the country would be in if she had been?
I can only imagine the divisiveness, the corruption, the investigations, the trampled rights, and all of the other elements in the parade of horrible that would have ensued. Dodged THAT bullet, didn't we?
