I upset my neighbor, Sarah, terribly yesterday. She came to my home on the pretense of borrowing our lawn edger but sought ways to collect a cup of my liberal tears. She knows I wanted Kamala to be our president. We have been neighbors for ten years and know each other’s political views.

I live in Florida, and Florida not only went red, but our abortion and marijuana initiatives failed. Our legislature made it so that there was a 60% threshold to win. So, we did not win, with 57% of people wanting those two things passed.

I waved her around to the garage, opened the door, and came out with the trimmer. I don’t think Sarah knew I would be in my villain phase once Trump won. Hey, she came to my house. That is on you if you are silly enough to venture into a villain’s lair.

Sarah looked at me and said,” Trump won, but we can still be friends, right?” Oh, no. There was no “Hello, how are you?” We are getting right to it.

I responded with a smile and warmth in my voice, “Sarah, we have never been friends. We are friendly neighbors. We can continue that.
