Reasons I cried this week...
Shock
Confusion
Horror
Because our country elected a man who thinks it's okay to walk into an under aged girl's dressing room while they are changing.
Because he thinks just because he is famous he can "do stuff like that" and no one says anything about it.
Because he has 12 women accusing him of sexual assault.
Because he said sometimes you just have to "grab them by the pussy."
Because Republicans are afraid of Democrats.
Because Democrats are afraid of Republicans.
Because we live in an "us vs. them" environment.
Because my friends are now worried about their marriages.
Because my other friends are worried they will be deported, beaten, or worse.
Because I am not "lucky" enough to be born a white male.
Because my niece/nephew will be born during this presidency.
Because it feels like fear won.
Because I know beautiful and intelligent women who voted for him.
Because it takes more for me to get an entry level job than for a conman to become President.
Because our country has become so divided that this was able to happen.
Because the suicide prevention and crisis hot lines get overwhelmed on Tuesday night.
Because To Write Love On Her Arms HAD to tweet out the information for the hot lines because so many people were/are scared.
I am NOT crying because my candidate lost. For those who think Hillary supporters are crying because she lost that is not true. I don't cry because I didn't win. I cry because I am scared for the state this country is in and what state this country will be in.
