what's all this about?


standard apolitical caveat; don't take anything I say as embracing or dismissing any inherent bias or 
affiliation - that's your baggage and I don't give a shit.

so plenty of discussion about the nation coming together over there from the president elect no less; resisting the temptation of hate that fuels the fire of division. But what is the deal with the image above? Office of the president elect? If everything is inevitable, surely the shortest term for such an office and who came up with the the graphics must be rubbing their hands together on a quick cash grab there. But moreover, it screams screw you, I won so get used to it.

humor me. Do a search on YouTube for exit polls. Plenty of analysis on the issues that motivated voting preferences, comparisons of 2016 to now. Then there is one breakdown that really interesting - candidate quality.

32% - is a strong leader
19% - can unite the country
24% - has good judgment
21% - cares about people like me

so what about the final 4%? Cares that the candidate wore a tin helmet on a Thursday?

here's a quaint notion about a question relating to exit polls. Who did you vote for? What was all this other nonsense about? Maybe the 4% put forward the question don't you want to ask me who I voted for and that was declared an invalid response.

I never thought a two way tie for last could be such a battle of conflicting arrogant positions draped in lazy misinformation.
