In my opinion the US has made a critical turn in our historical path. With Trump we were going down a path that leads to fascist dictatorship. That is how dictators are made, by lying and scapegoating. We'll never know just how big of a bullet we dodged. I was afraid that someday our grandchildren would wonder how we ever let Trump grab power, just as we wonder today about Hitler. Thank God we had the sense (barely) to turn from that path.

True...the authoritarian "uber alles" environment with fear, anger, hate, & scapegoats was a little like 1933 Germany before the holocaust...no more!

You really have no idea what a fascist is and need to study more about hitler. My uncles fought in ww2 and my neighbor escaped nazi Germany after his dad and brother were killed.

Opinion, (and a despicable one at that): Harris is a "wicked witch"
Well Biden has lied many times in his career and that didn’t seem to bother anyone, nor his dealings with China and Ukraine using his position as Vice President to advance hunter. That’s a fact.

True, Willie Brown was married but separated.

We live in an era where companies are HQed anywhere, make products anywhere, and sell anywhere. If the leftists here make business untenable, the businesses will just move somewhere else.

A weight has been lifted. I hope the dark cloud over this country will dissipate, in time.

To quote my good friend, who has had his share of prejudice in life, - "I feel like I can breathe again".

Yes. Yes we can.

*beep beep*
The dark cloud will not dissipate. Candidate Harris/Biden promised us they would give us a long dark winter. Now they will be the leaders, so they plan on delivering what they promised. A long dark winter. They told you up front that is what they want to deliver to you and you voted for it. Enjoy. I hope you like dark and cold.
