I would have preferred almost any alternative to Trump, but:[ol]  
[li]He’s not Hillary[/li][li]He’s not Hillary[/li][li]We can always hope he dies soon after the inauguration (or even that the “he doesn’t really want to be president, and he’ll resign once he wins” rumor is true).[/li][li]Hopefully there are enough checks and balances that even an incompetent clown as president can’t do too much damage.[/li][/ol]
