It will not go well

I was watching more fallout from the election I'm the form of people losing friendships and relationships over votes for Trump. Many liberals found that the person they thought they knew did something against them by voting for someone of low moral character, divisive nature and history of degrading minorities and women. 

We are living in a very strange timeline and this wasn't your average election. It was almost a referendum on what type of person you are; your values and sense of decency and judgement were being weighed and many people cannot get past it. 

I know it will be a very challenging 4 years and many mistakes will be made by virtue of the even more mentally erratic Trump being surrounded only by sycophants. Whether the damage to the country is irreparable will remain to be seen, but I am also of the opinion that some relationships will not be reformed because the vote of those they thought they knew touched a nerve deep in what constituted their core value system. It wasn't about a status quo political option but, for many people, about what kind of person you are. 

As I have aged I find it increasingly common to be able to identify people who aren't well-informed and yet extremely opinionated because we live in an age that has encouraged it. The results over the next 4 years will likely not be positive for the things you  should want to uphold and cherish in a society. Radical conservatism wrapped in authoritarian leanings isn't about diversity and inclusion. It is about holding some people back and suppressing rights of some people, often already marginalized, that we do not like. 

In that sense, it will not go well.
