If you think of elections as a a network of train tracks and voters as passengers, we just saw the majority of voters choose the train to hell.
"This train we're on stopped too much," they said. "That other conductor promised he'd get us straight to the destination."
"But we didn't read the map - we just trusted him," they said. "We just read the map after buying the ticket and it said we're going back to the 1850s."
"And now we want off, but they said no refunds."
This is where we are.

There was a comic strip called "Life In Hell" a while ago by Matt Groening (The Simpsons)
"The comic covers a wide range of subjects, such as love, sex, work, and death, and explores themes of angst, social alienation, self-loathing, and fear of inevitable doom".
That has been the theme in my life since Raygun in 1980.
