It only took three days since the AP projected Joe Biden as our next President for Trump to directly hurt our democracy and refuse the will of the people. These are not just signs but a direct attempt to create civil unrest! I am almost certain that Trump will continue to engage in something that will require us to stand together or fall apart in the upcoming days and weeks. How will 2020 end? With real hope for an end to the pandemic and the survival of a great democracy? Stay optimistic but pay attention to reality...

Luckily I have no friends who are Trump supporters. I may have a few social media "friends", but that's it.
Oddly enough, I ran into an good old friend of mine today who said he voted for Trump, but he was glad that Biden won. I could not believe my ears! But, I bet a lot of voters did that.

That doesn't make any sense. Why??
Fox-washed, herd mentality, habitual Republicanism, I don't know.
I think you’re on to it. The wife friend of ours hates trump but told us her husband wanted to vote for him because he wanted to save the Republican Party. She was trying to convince him it was too far gone. He and I stay away from politics so not sure how he voted.
Ya'll just kidding right? Over 70 million people voted for Donald Trump. We are very lucky that 5 million more democrats voted Biden. If you are so disconnected from society that you have to believe that all 70 million are "idiots and losers" then I just don't get it. Ya'll need to get out more and engage with people to find out why they voted for Trump. Many are tired of being called redneck, idiot, ignorant, loser and much worse. Many others have fear of social change. Others have fear of lazy democrats who would rather live off the government instead of being productive. Many many others have fear of economic collapse from social policies and more taxes. Most of them have fear of the collapse of the family unit, banning prayer from our schools, acceptance of religions other than Christianity, loss of cultural values, loss of identity and becoming a minority. African Americans like Dave Chappelle, Daryl Davis and Herschel Walker understand Trump supporters better than you. Come on. Know your opponent then engage in a respectful way. It is real ignorance that does not understand why so many people vote for Donald Trump. The more you disrespect them the more they will vote for people like Donald Trump. The stronger their fears of the above the more they will vote for people like Donald Trump. We have to engage with them, respect them and calmly point out their fallacies. I swear if democrats simply withdraw because they are too frustrated, too irritated and too lazy to engage with a Trump supporter then what does your intelligence tell you about that for future elections? Come on this is only one battle for the soul of this Country. Get out there and engage with people. Don't use the excuse that you don't have any friends that are Trump supporters or know of any. They are all around you! I know you don't like this but get over it and be an active, respectful, engaging democrat...
I know people who are Trump supporters and I talk with them, even hang out with them, but I can only think of one I consider to be a friend.
