This popped up on my lock screen. I allowed myself to be curious and found a wonderful story.

Election 2016

Things I'm learning from this election:

• It's okay to wish harm on someone if you disagree with their politics.
• A candidates memes will always be smarter, funnier and more direct than the candidate ever will be in real life.
• People are getting used to being given poor choices. The phrase "lesser of two evils" keeps getting tossed around.
• Both parties can be mean and nasty.
• We're not learning about the consequences of attacking individuals instead of persuading them to think differently. (can this sentence be made clearer?)
• The losing candidate's supporters will still be around after the election. That is a very important fact to remember.
