I stopped writing last night out of pure shock, disgust and hurt. That is what this result is – especially to women, especially to minorities, especially to young children who will ask their parents HOW – how did this happen? How did a sexist, racist, xenophobic, homophobic, reality-tv star, bigot become voted into the White House? How is this ok?
I am heartbroken.
