With every day that passes I can feel my heart hardening. With every deliberate cruelty, many of them cheered on by Trump’s MAGA supporters, my heart is just getting less and less flexible.

For all the farmers, and truck drivers, and mechanics, and carpenters, and construction workers, and salespeople, and miners, and machinist, and factory worker, and welder and assembler, and yes, also the nurses and teachers who voted for Trump, I say fuck ‘em.

For all the good people in Wyoming, West Virginia, Oklahoma, Idaho, Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, North Dakota, South Dakota, Tennessee, Louisiana, and Nebraska, the twelve states that voted in the highest percentages for Trump, I say fuck ‘em.

And we’re only 24 days into the Trump administration. We still have 1436 days to go.

Imagine how I’m going to feel after another 1436 days of putting up with this asshole.

Another 1436 days of this abject cruelty.

The United States is obviously very fractured, completely bifurcated at the moment. But it’s going to get much, much worse. I’m really not sure  how we’re going to manage this, with two sets of people who just detest each other. 

It is well known among marriage researchers that the most corrosive thing you can feel for your partner is contempt. And at the moment, I’m feeling a lot of contempt for the supporters of Donald Trump. Many of them are going to suffer quite badly when the full consequences of Trump’s actions hit home.

And I’m not going to care.

Fuck ‘em. Fuck ‘em all.
