      I hope you didnt learn the wrong lesson. I was doing post mortem on arguments I had before the election and you came up. Decided to check in on you. My heart was so full after reading this. I know we didn’t have the impact we wanted but to see you put aside grievances and made the hard choice is moving me right now. I wanted so badly for you to be astroturfing when I clicked your name but to find this was much much better and gave me a glimpse of some long lost hope I use to have.

          No, it’s not on you, its on me. I just thought there was no way this person was going to show up this election and I thought it of a lot of people. I held on to that even knowing most people’s votes are made insignificant by the electoral college. The only lesson I learned is just to trust other people’s judgment and I don’t have the answer. So I just have to trust someone else might. Or just generally there is more goodness in the world then mindless hate.
