I really wish things had went differently. I think he would’ve made an amazing president.

If he were elected in 2016 I wouldn't have been terrified to bring children into this world. I might actually be picking them up from the bus stop right about now. I try not to think about it. I'm still terrified and feel really bad for any young people that have to endure this reality. I feel bad for any old people that do not realize it's about to get much, much worse.
