(15,435 posts)CAN'T wrap their heads around WHAT it means to elect ANOTHER Clinton!
I've joked at times and referred it to The Land Of The Walking Dead OR Invasion of the Body Snatchers. I know that sounds rough, but it would seem that people would WAKE UP by now! Instead we see that EVEN NOW with ALL we've lost and what America has had to face that a light bulb should have gone off for so many of us who WILL NEVER be able to imagine that kind of money!
I talk to people who aren't following politics like we do, many who DO see and will vote for Bernie, but they just say "things will be fine, don't worry." I have to scratch my head and think to myself, how is it with ALL we've seen that people are so complacent? They like Bernie and so many tell me they'll vote for him, but they just don't want to talk about "issues."
Maybe it's because I feel so deeply that I find this frustrating, but it leaves me feeling sad that actually DO SEE and KNOW we need something different, but they just aren't worried.
But, OTOH I am encouraged that MANY have FINALLY gotten mad enough to start fighting back.
