For years I even kept the little black and white TV set I watched his resignation speech on as a souvenir. I was so happy when that asshole resigned. I will be exponentially happier when Trump is gone.

... he resigned !!!
Omg, so many people had brought radios with them to keep up with the news!
It was I think more than half way through the show when they announced it.
As you could guess the audience went wild!!!
It was glorious!!!!!
And yes, omg, those last few weeks were intense!
If/when Trump is defeated... that celebration is going to look like sparker next to a full Macy's Fourth of July fireworks show!
