Yes, we want them to come over to our side, and yes, we welcome those who have come to their senses. But we must never forget what they did to the rest of us.

I knew when he was "re-elected" that it was going to be another miserable time. Anyone with ANY sense would feel the same way. So no wonder there is a huge spike in stress and anxiety. It's certainly true because we all feel it!
