It's the little moments. That's what I tell myself these
days where the world is a mess. So while him being out of office doesn't fix
what's wrong with America, Trump leaving office is a small victory to those who
are present enough to know he was horrible. So #ByeFelicia

You've left a trail of injured people, desecrated ideals,
plundered resources, and fractured relationships that cannot be quantified.
But in being as unrepentantly malevolent as you have been,
you’ve shown us who we really are.

For years your supporters would tell me that they loved you
because you “spoke your mind”.
That was never the real story.
The truth is, they loved you because you've spoken their
minds.
That is the greatest tragedy of it all.
