A little roadblock on the way to acceptance
Most psychologist believe the first three stages of grief are denial, anger and acceptance. The liberals and the Democrats have not gotten past anger, and are displaying a notorious amount of bitterness.
For most liberals and Democrats, acceptance is not even on the table yet. They are now in a stage of bitterness. Some examples of this bitterness:
Democrats and their media are irrelevant.
Don’t worry...... that 8 years will pass!
For completeness
The 5 stages of grief and loss are:
1. Denial and isolation;
2. Anger;
3. Bargaining;
4. Depression;
5. Acceptance.
good article
It’s a big club by now. It includes ‘republicans’ too.
If you really want to irritate the Democrats and the media (but I repeat myself) just ignore them. They can’t stand being marginalized and slighted.
Once the ‘Republicans’ see Trump winning, they’ll climb on the Bandwagon.
The same happened with Reagan.
Still many in stage 2 anger [bitter] but there is movement toward deal making. Skummy Schumer just today or late yesterday offered an infrastructure bill and an offer to cooperate if it’s passed.
It won’t pass and chuk wouldn’t cooperate even if it did.
On to depression then acceptance.
But really, the anger and bitterness is what has led to 8 years of losses across the nation for the dems in state houses, governorships, US Congress seats, and now the Chief Executive.
So, let them whine!

The third step for the lefties has shown itself to be felonious crime.
The fourth should be complete eternal biological entropy.
(we can use the fertilizer)

Make dust or eat dust. (How does it taste, haters?)
Resentments are like swallowing poison and expecting your enemy to die.
Because they want to alter the country to full socialism note last 8 years they never give power they are just as dangerous now as ever.
NEVER trust a democrat.
You're right.
When President Trump gave his inaugural speech he was NOT talking to ANY of the hundreds of elected officials behind him - not one Democrat not one Republican.
Trump was talking ONLY to the American people. That one choice set the bar high for every other inaugural speech from now to the end of time: our President will speak to the people...
Sometimes people get “stuck” in their grief process and can’t/won’t move past a certain stage. I once knew a widow who was stuck in anger at her husband for “leaving her” when he died suddenly in an accident. Her anger was so raw, and she was so verbal about it, I thought his death must be fairly recent. Then, I found out he’d been gone 17 years. And she was utterly miserable, yet unable to get over the anger. So sad.
