  1. Props to everyone who went out and voted blue💙. America owes you a debt of gratitude. Your votes may have very well saved this country. It may not have been a blue wave, but it was definitely a blue tide, and that was enough. Thank you voters!!!😄😄😄

  2. "Donald Trump’s presidency has raised a question that many of us never thought we’d be asking: Is our democracy in danger? Harvard professors Steven Levitsky and Daniel Ziblatt have spent more than twenty years studying the breakdown of democracies in Europe and Latin America, and they believe the answer is yes. Democracy no longer ends with a bang—in a revolution or military coup—but with a whimper: the slow, steady weakening of critical institutions, such as the judiciary and the press, and the gradual erosion of long-standing political norms. The good news is that there are several exit ramps on the road to authoritarianism. The bad news is that, by electing Trump, we have already passed the first one." We may have passed the 1st exit by electing Trump, but tonight, the voters made sure we didn't miss that 2nd exit. Outstanding job voters!!!😄
