Dear God in heaven what we are losing and what is now going to come into the
White House after a coup/stolen election is more then I can handle.

Michelle is the coolest and most on top of it 1st lady ever. Lady Bird Johnson
and her wildflower/native plant push 40 years ahead of its time was kind of
cool too.

I still can't watch the news, read a newspaper, or sleep out the night.

They have no sense of humor or even try to be likeable. I am really going to miss the first family, their grace, sense of humor and ability to reach people in a way that makes them seem like a family could live next door to you and have a normal conversation with. Can you even imagine Trump or his wife on Ellen dancing, going on Jimmy Kimmel reading mean texts, slow jamming the news on Fallon? Just being regular people and having the ability to laugh at themselves?

They were a god-send and will never be imitated or duplicated in my lifetime. I am grateful to have been able to cast my vote for and to have lived thru PBO's two terms in office.

... seeing them reminds me of the pack of vulgarians poised to occupy the White House.
