So, how will you deal/cope with what's coming?
Probably in a somewhat similar situation to yours. May not be affected much personally, but feeling stunned and grieving for the country we thought we had or were creating, appalled by (pretty much all) R legislators, plus business leaders truckling to this guy. Don't know what to do, hoping some leadership will emerge.
This seems much different from 2017, when so many were immediately up in (figurative) arms.
You’re all welcome to visit us for a breather 
marksierra is a wonderful host, in a lovely city and State, with lots to do. I’m in a place renowned for its lovely weather and relaxed lifestyle.
And the coffee is sooo delicious!
I moved to Canada.
Since the election, however, I stopped reading the news for the most part. I listen to the CBC world news in the morning when I get up and the NPR hourly report while I do the dishes at night but, otherwise, I try to ignore it.
Ignoring it calms the anger and dulls the despair.

does China looming over Hong Kong make you worried?

On the road to my brother's house in Chagrin Falls, there's this MAGA guy (a local attorney) who has a big sign on his lawn, with removable letters, like old-time theater signs. He updates it frequently.
This time it said "Government Fails - LA Burns".
At the time, I had been reading all of the debunkings of MAGA's lies about the fires and the talk of putting conditions on aid to LA, so when I came upon the sign, it was all I could do to stop the car, run over and knock it down. And maybe knock on his door and tell him what for.
I did none of these things, of course.
There's lots of Trump signs still up around here, because they're gloating, so this is a not an infrequent urge.
But after this one I thought to myself, "I can't continue to be this angry all of the time. It's not healthy."
I know that I'm privileged and am unlikely to be directly affected by what happens in the coming years. Life will continue as it has. Hell, I may even get a tax cut.
But that doesn't really make me feel better, knowing that I have to watch this country get dismantled as it is ruled by the most corrupt (morally, financially and every other which way) administration in history.
Do I just close my eyes?
