[@miapdx503]

Very well said! I agree with every word. We need to be cautious about what we listen to, what we're taking in. After seeing kkkult folk dine on lies and cultspeak, we need to continue to rise above the muck and mire, to cultivate our higher selves. It's easy to fall into the trap of animosity. My old pastor (Rest in perfect peace, Pastor Bethel) taught us from a book, "The Bait of Satan" if I got it right. Anyhow, it was about how the devil gets us to go against each other, because we took offense. I know that Dirty Donnie brought out the worst in me! Anger, fear, distrust...he plays on negative emotions. All negative all the time...his kkkult has no problem with this. But as children of the Most High God, we have to rise above this trap. We cannot allow the devil to tempt us by baiting us with offensive language. In the days to come, we're going to see people at their worst. They are crowing over this "victory," too ignorant to realize it's a victory for Satan. When reality hits, it will be too late.

[@deviritter5232]

My son, who’s a political science major, said one of the top trending searches on Tuesday was “is Biden still in office or is Biden running for president again? Another top trending search was “who is Kamala Harris “. That is how completely tuned out millions of people in this country have been. They don’t know who the vice president is. They don’t know who the candidates for president were. I was looking at the numbers for North Carolina why the state voted in a Democrat for Governor but there was like 1 millions in deficit ballots for president. And it turns out that that’s because millions of people in North Carolina didn’t know who the candidates were. They didn’t like Trump, but they didn’t know who any of the other candidates were. And they couldn’t even think smart enough to just vote for the Democrat. That’s how stupid people are. My son said “I’m sorry mom “. It’s impossible to imagine how stupid and out of millions of Americans are. I don’t think they should be allowed to vote at all if they don’t even know who the vice president and president are and who the candidates are.

Have over half the counted ballots of registered county voters been for a candidate? That is one way.

Some have given warning! Most regular TV hosts have given warnings about the dangers this election posed for America first and will then expand to involve the whole world. TV and radio hosts risked much to try to explain the danger of the lazy cheat, and arrogant Trump... to warn their watchers that Trump's stated policies were fascist, echoing Hitler and Mussolini. Trump and Fox used the words of fascism often, for years - and instead of being repelled (like those of us who knew they spat out lies constantly and heard the fascism), their base believed because they chose Fox as their only information intake. They heard nothing but lies for years - not bothering to check what they heard for facts or walk out of the muck into the real world to find all was getting better as Biden fixed the messes a lazy, lying Trump left. So, my belief is the GOP came to fascism through laziness. Rather than even asking questions, they just swallowed the lies hook, line, and sinker from media and Trump. And Putin - through his vain tool, Trump - reeled them in. Now. Just what is Putin going to do with his American toys? We'll find out quickly after Trump mouths the President's Oath without comprehending what those words mean. :The Oath of the Presidential Office is in the Constitution of the United States of America, Article 2, Section 1, Clause 8. It is short and solemn. By the way, President Washington was taller than Trump, and actually fought in battles - unlike "Bonespurs Don".

I was born here in Iowa, and I have lived here my whole life (over 50 years). And from the moment I started watching Trumps rallies on TV clear back in 2015, I recognized this man for the dangerous narcissistic sociopath that he is. And I have never understood why so many other people could not see this about him. It has been heart breaking to see loved ones and neighbors support this horrible dangerous man. I will never understand it!!! And I feel so alone, what the hell is wrong with people. how could you vote for this DANGEROUS HORIBLE MAN!! how??? why?? Even my husband defends Trump and thinks I'm overreacting and yells at me. And I've been dealing with this since 2015 with my husband and it has been awful. And now I have to deal with it even longer now. This means this will go on now for at least 4 more f*cking years or MORE. Which means I will be dealing with it for a total of at least 14 years or MORE. I can't deal with sh*t and I'm so frustrated and scared. And since I have no one to talk to, finally this evening I broke down and called my MIL and started crying to her looking for some kind of comfort and she just started talking about how "all those huge groups of "illegals" who Biden/kamala had come into our country, and now Trumps gonna make it better" MY GOD!!

[@Timzart7]

I've listened to you since your first video appearances after you and colleagues wrote your book, and you've given me a lot of insights about Trump's mental illness. Thank you for your work. It was a video essay a few weeks ago by Ezra Klein entitled "What's Wrong With Trump?" that explained something fundamental about his disinhibition, which is why I believe so many people who follow politics casually, or only see Fox once in a while, like so much that he is not like other politicians who choose their words carefully, but instead he just says whatever he feels like saying in the moment. They interpret that as authenticity, or even truth-telling, the opposite of "woke" that they detest. They also seem endeared to him when he blurts out things like being the best at something, or that he is a "very stable genius." And I don't really find him that funny either, especially after eight years. I'm with Sam Harris on that -- he lacks a sense of humor. When he was just a rich idiot, a celebrity businessman, I admit, I found him a little entertaining, but it was unthinkable then that he would ever be in any high office, let alone President. And I assumed he'd have to be in some kind of lower office to even become mayor of NY. Ironically, Donald himself, would often muse about running for President early on. Maybe Roy Cohn told him that he should. What is going on with these Trump voters, that they value that in a leader, someone who doesn't choose their words carefully, but just rambles like a loon? I moved to NYC in 1980 and noticed Trump on TV or in the newspapers, and he was a goofball then, too, a blowhard who bragged about himself and his great ideas, such as opening his first casino, like it was a spectacular contribution to society, "like nobody has seen before." And on extended interviews, like on Howard Stern, he was so shallow, and really profoundly ignorant about so many things outside of real estate maybe and all the women who were after him. It was comical. He was a rich doofus who, without his father's money, most likely would have been in sales, maybe vacuum cleaners or something. And in recent years, whether he's talking about alternative energy systems, LED light bulbs, or toilets even, he doesn't know what he is talking about. And he doesn't know even the basics of American history, ecology or hundreds of other topics a President should know. I couldn't make it through a single episode of The Apprentice, because I thought it was so boring and lame, including Trump in it. I accept that back in the 1980s, some people loved him as a "colorful character," which I believe is an expression Putin once used to describe him. Maybe you can address this in a video, but why is it, from early on in his public life, people seemed to either be able to see IMMEDIATELY that he's such a total BSer, a real blowhard, and a conman, someone you really would not want to be around for any length of time. Or conversely, other people find him to be refreshingly frank, very fun, amusing and authentic. Sorry I wrote so much. I'm old, and feel sick since he won. Hopefully, I'll recover in a few days, and get away from politics.

You need to question yourself and your own mentality about the reason why you ever found him entertaining. Something's really sick about that and makes you part of the trump contagion and problem.

[@sheilayagodzinski5747]

He said that in reference to way back when he was on TV. The rest of what he wrote was against him totally , you are being extremely hard on him, he doesn't deserve it. Don't come back and blast me go tell some Maga people how you feel.

[@Timzart7]

@@nancywutzke5392 I never doubted my first impressions of Trump, that he was a conman. Like Sam Harris, I believe him to be almost the worst person imaginable to be President and an extreme danger. I've had to think deeply about things though, like why a good friend from my past, a retired physician, is a Trumper. He has lost 80% of his former friends because of it, but I continue to communicate with him in an attempt to understand him, to be empathetic. I've read 30 books about Trump and thousands of articles, in an attempt to understand him and his followers. Before 1980, I started out as a grad student in German history, and I got lost in thinking about the horrors of the Holocaust. It was depressing, trying to figure out how a highly civilized society could allow a genocidal maniac to come to power and that it ended up costing over 50M lives. I would console myself with thinking this could never happen in the US, under current conditions, any fascist coming to power. Well, the horror is Trump, and the horror show continues. I do not think of myself as "part of the contagion" but it is perfectly fine that you think that, because these are very confusing times.

We must keep faith and eyes wide open. His is one man in a nation of millions. Allow grief it’s time, but do not give in to despair. Despair does not have the energy to change anything. Rise up fellow citizens of our democracy. I am promising to do the same.

[@Jimbo895-y3s]

Yes only one man but a very unstable man subject to unhinged rants with the nuclear codes.

[@andrewsquire1024]

Dr Lee, despite the likely ‘nightmare’ ahead, your calm demeanor, professional brilliance and advice about self-care, is a beacon of light. THANK YOU, THANK YOU for helping us. If only more people would listen to reason….😢

[@johannafernandez6879]

Dr. Lee, you and your colleagues have faced this crisis with courage, methodical analysis, dignity, and sadly, sacrifice. History will recognize your intervention. Thank you for your brilliance.

[@barbarag7238]

Hi Dr Lee, I want to thank you again for your courageous and tireless effort to help the US and the world. I think those of us not sick with Trumpitis are very aware of the danger for people such as yourself so I hope you will keep yourself safe in or from the coming tempest.

[@felichia808]

Thank you very much 💙💜

[@laura-jeanbernhardson3879]

Dr. Lee, thank you for all you do!

[@alisonevans8406]

Well done. Another beautifully delivered address. Your readings without the pauses, are coming across much more forcefully and therefore inspiring more confidence in what the actual message is.

[@marianneb.7112]

Thank you, Dr. Lee! You have helped prepare us for this difficult time. I look forward to your further insights. May God always bless you and your family. 🎉

[@jimdowling1591]

We will keep on fighting for truth.

[@belindafernandez5514]

Thank you Dr. Lee. We need you still as we go forward.

[@ednalama4244]

Thank you so very much for your important work, you are very wise and ethical!!! Please stay safe and don't give up!

[@eviewilde354]

This is a very dark and depressing outcome. It is hard to believe so many people can be so deceived as to vote Trump back in. The world is doomed!

[@barbaralebby4013]

😢

[@Fomites]

Take heart. The World has been through darker times and became good again. But it's such a shame we have to endure this.

Thank you for your courage and steadfast leadership during this sad and dangerous time. Your clarity and expertise are greatly needed. Please stay with us. Thank you.

[@rescuingmodernity]

Dr. Lee, please take care! Hundreds of millions of people around the world are shocked to see this democratic vote to abandon democracy. We don’t need to worry about being right anymore; we just need to focus on being healthy and sane. Bless you, Dr. Lee!!!!

[@lesliec8069]

I believe it is a perfect time to mandate that he go thru a fitness for office assessment and physical. Thank you for your professional wisdom and support for wellness.

[@dave9]

Hi Dr Lee, thanks for your brave podcasts, you are truly full filling your oath.

[@leilamcnamara9218]

Thank you Dr Lee. Love love love and so much gratitude.🌟🤍✨💫

[@Mele-c9k]

Good to see that you are well and thank you for your strength and bravery.

[@robinantonio8870]

I am SO SICK of evil narcissists always getting away with it and being rewarded for their disgusting behaviour. I know more narcissists than normal people. My only consolation is that the narcissists who selfishly and stupidly voted for Trump will also suffer with the rest of us. They have condemned the entire world to hardship distress and even death. They GLOAT and delight in others' distress , showing their disgusting cruelty . Thank you , Dr, for your attempts to.warn us. Stay safe.

[@pierresaelen3097]

Just as others mentioned, I wish that you, dr., stay safe. I'm used to say this to contacts iin countries like Russia or China, but having to say this to those who live in America, is deeply unsettling to me as a Western European. Thank you for your continued commitment.

[@robertp9297]

Dr Lee- It's always been a great experience, when I hear your explanations. Thanks for your bravery. I appreciate your intellect.

[@tedhamilton481]

Thank you, Dr. Lee. The eternal will be.

[@peanutgallery2634]

Incredibly well said. Now all that remains is for us to follow these instructions . Thanks Dr Lee

[@janicebowles2383]

Thank you, Dr. Lee for this hopeful piece. There are several things you have mentioned that help soothe and make sense of the crazy the world is currently experiencing. 🙏

[@sarzorro]

You’re right that nothing is forever but I’m afraid this will last for the rest of my life. It will take decades and generations to recover from this disaster. We’ve got a category 10 hurricane barreling towards America and no sea walls to protect us. God help us all.

[@bradmcewen]

I agree. No one ever fully recovers from narcissistic abuse. Like the old saying, those who need therapy won't go. But their targets have to.

[@tenofcupsconsulting]

Thank you for everything you’ve done & continue for us 🕊️appreciate the sanity and logic very much
