> [@GIGObuster](#): > > And Trump’s mini-me, Sheriff Joe Arpaio, was defeated. I just heard about that about an hour ago. That is a little ray of sunshine. I have hated that guy for over 20 years, and it’s awesome to think that he’s the only prominent Trump advocate in America who didn’t get to enjoy last night. > [@ThelmaLou](#): > > I’m also abandoning print media and any news about politics. Since I have a Roku and no cable, I don’t see regular TV anyway. I didn’t see even one political ad during this campaign. Good thing, because I don’t have access to the Men in Black flash-thingie. I will check in at the Dope but not the Elections forum. The first few years I was here, I NEVER looked in there. Lately it’s been the only one I’ve always checked. No more. This is, as I noted upthread, pretty much my plan as well–probably starting Friday night. The sticking point is figuring out what to do with Facebook. I like seeing photos of my friends and relatives’ kids and things like that, but there is inevitably going to be lots of stuff about politics mixed in. > [@Dinsdale](#): > > **up\_the\_junction** - I’m not sure what portion of your post you intend as constructive within the intent of this thread. Plenty of other options on these boards and elsewhere to spread invective. Not trying to junior mod - just asking politely.
