Thoughts from my granddaughter upon Donald Trump's victory

My granddaughter called me the day after Trump won:

"We ask women why they don't come forward when sexually assaulted. It's because we live in a world where an abuser can become President."

"No matter what happens, it saddens me deeply that rape, felonies, trying to overthrow our democracy, misogyny, racism and transphobia are somehow not deal breakers for tens of millions of Americans. People need to stop being so careless with each other's lives and rights."
