“My mother, who I lost this year, wasn’t welcome in department stores as a young woman, but for eight years she had the best view in America from her room at the White House.”
-Michelle Obama, Orator Extraordinaire

The Durham Workers Assembly criticized Trump for campaign stunts involving garbage trucks. After struggling to open the truck's door, w/c Tim Walz said it nearly killed Trump, led to a video clip & concerns about his health. The dump truck stunt was followed at a McDo's where he fried French fries. NC branch of the Southern Workers Assembly, said "A billionaire sleazeball acting like he is a worker is beyond gross, and slap in the face to all working-class people,"

Russian dissident and chess champion Garry Kasparov endorsed VP Harris:
“Given my experience, I am not willing to stand idly by and watch the beacon of hope that I am grateful to now call home slide into the authoritarianism of my childhood. This election is a choice between a candidate who has vowed to fight for America’s institutions, and one who is deeply dangerous—a candidate who I believe will bring total mayhem and destruction to this country.”

As the US election draws ever closer, the emotions folks have about the stakes and potential outcomes intensify.
Some people are desperately worried about their personal safety should DJT get re-elected, others are worried for friends or family. Much could change.
So the coping demand is heavy.
I hope people will give each other grace over these next days and weeks.
Take care of yourself as works best for you and let others do the same without judgment.
We’re all doing our best.
