Hi Gypsy, you are not alone in your disbelief. Reading other posts on here it seems many share your view. I can't understand how someone who has done all the wicked things he has, could possibly be elect president. But politics has changed, not only in the US but here in the UK. The majority here elected a liar! He is taking money away from us old age pensioners first. And we have to put up with this for 5 years!! I thought your poem said it all very distinctly. Well done, my friend. :) Sandra xx

Oh no.... I didn't know it was so bad in the UK. I receive a pension as well and I'm scared too. I think all of us must fight the good fight and stay connected.
I'm surprised how many fanstorians have given me positive and kind reviews. I feel better, it gives me hope. I only had a couple of Trump supporters.
Thank you very much, 😊 Sandra. I hope you are feeling well.
Gypsy hugs

I feel your grief and pain. I was hoping Trump would not be re-elected and am disappointed but we have to move forward. Your words are eloquent and have meaning.

Comment from BethShelby
I agree with you. I'm sick over the results as well. I'm not sure something unhanded didn't go on, but the Bible tells us there will be evil in charge of our nation before the end. This may be what was foretold. If so, the time is short.

Comment from Ulla
Marival mi amiga, I am with you all the way. When I first heardI actually didn't want to know. How could the vote for a felon, a perpetual liar and an orange buffoon, as you so aptly call him. Now we all have to live with and that includes the world. This is not just an American problem. I just pray that he will leave in four years if he's still alive. Thank you for sharing this with us. Un fuerte abrazo y besitos, Ulla xxx

Thank you, Ulla. I know Trump is not just dangerous to us, he is a threat to the world. I don't think he is going to do anything, he is surrounding himself with greedy corrupted people with no real experience and they will do the work... not good for the majority of Americans, just for the 1% riches people in our country. Donald will be out golfing and only show up for the cameras.
Thank you very much for understanding and for the kind words.
Besitos y abrazos
Marival ❤️

I won't comment on the politics, but the writing is wonderful. You are allowed to have convictions and beliefs even if we don't all agree. I guess I lied. Sorry. It's when bias and bigotry become a message of their own that worries me. It's not just one politician that has done it. If you really listen you will hear. If you close your heart and mind, you'll just listen to mediaspeak. Don't let Trump derangement syndrome ruin your beautiful writing. That's not an accusation, that's a plea. You have such a beautiful way about you. If all you can see is hate for one man, it will eat you alive. And everything good in you will suffer. All Love

Comment from Bill Schott
This poem, The Sound of Thunder, echoes many others' thoughts as this offensive election has placed the country in the grips of a dictator surrounded by yes men and grifters.

Yes, Trump is a dictator but an idiot. I'm avoiding reading news about him.
Thank you very much 😊

Comment from royowen
I've learned not to have favourite politicians and not to have a favourite party or political candidate because there's bias in my human emotions, you may be surprised, if I thought my human choices could be trusted I would fall back, we need to trust and not our hearts, it eases my imperfect thoughts, just trust, blessings Roy

Welcome
Comment from RJ Heritage
A well presented poem of the feelings you experienced. We all experience disappointment in our unique way. In your second stanza you say, 'founded my phone', I know the word means to establish or set up, I could not quite understand what you meant. Perhaps you meant fumbled or found? I knew that Trump wound win, I have called the last five Presidential Elections correctly, this one was the sixth. This has had me on odd ends even with my friends and some family members who think I'm jinxed.
It gives me no pleasure, but I tell them what I see anyway. I know that God has a plan for his people, and that he has the final and ultimate say. We have free will, to choose. My choice was not to get too involved in the politics, but rather what the outcome would mean. We as Americans, have to take a serious look at ourselves, for God certainly is, and he's not just, 'a stranger on the bus.' Thank you for sharing.

Thank you very much, RJ. I meant 'found' in past tense. I kept checking the dictionary because I was not sure, but you are right.

Thanks for sharing this because many of us are still grieving and are stunned with disbelief. We have to keep turning all our fears over to the Lord otherwise our fears will eat into us. We have to be strong and follow Kamala's gracious model. Big Hugs!!

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
I can appreciate your heartbreak and shock, Gypsy. And you're not the only one to admit that she cried on hearing the news. It seems to be akin to trauma for many and, indeed, visceral. As I've said before here, we're all in danger if the US gives up on its allies. The dictators of this world must be laughing their heads off!! But your excellent verse will ultimately help, I hope, in the inevitable stages of grief. Thanks for sharing. Debbie
