Remember too that despite, yes, Trump won, he really does not represent, in any way, shape or form, a very large number of U.S. citizens. We know that unfortunately, many people voted on a single issue, say immigration, the economy, inflation. Many persons decided to vote for someone who represents themselves as a business man, not a politician.
While many of these persons may buy into his words and action regarding racism, sexism, ableism, and trans and homophobia, many persons actually do not. They voted on a single issue, and our community is again collateral. Remember his win represents a very skewed and myopic focus for many.
There's room for despair, Forcier says, but there are ways to help get rid of it, too. Focus on the little things around you that bring you joy: your family, friends, pets, favorite shows, hobbies - whatever makes you happy.
