I do not berate myself with "am a I a fraud?" since I an not a fraudulent caller. I speak for those who won't/can't. I speak as a proud yet angry American.

What really pisses me off is that I have to continue to do this BS again and again and again!!! I'm extremely frustrated with the American voters and I can't wait for it to end in my lifetime but I doubt that is a realistic outcome. I'm 63 and I know that the US democracy has been screwed so severely that there may be no light at the end of the tunnel.

I'm just glad that I decided not to have kids when I was 12. I listen to my instincts and this was a biggie. I'm also glad that my primary care doctor is a democrat and he understands why tRump has made me so upset that I've dropped to 81 pounds. I even stopped watching the news since last July but that doesn't seem to make a difference as far as anxiety goes. Subconsciously I know what IS REALLY going on and that makes me scared and angry. I wish my grandmom gave me the name of some of our relatives in Italy who would be glad to do us a favor (really).
