That’s God’s decision, not mine, or yours, or Trump’s.
I know you’re upset that your guy is going to lose. We all felt that way in 2008 and 2012, both in the primary and general election.
Ultimately, life goes on. Or maybe it won’t and Jesus will return first. One thing that we both know is that no matter who wins in this campaign, we know who, or Who, as the case may be, ultimately wins in the end.
For now... well, yeah. Depression is one of the stages of grief, and if you’re emotionally invested in a campaign, it’s not uncommon to go through those stages. I’m not mocking you with that statement; I’m just trying to say what I’ve seen. It’s normal and probably even necessary.
Don’t beat yourself up too much, okay? All election drama aside, and bad behavior, and gloating, and groaning, most of us on FR want the same thing, and once this mess is over, by and large we’ll all be here for you.
Good advice. Blessed are the peacemakers.

I see this whole election as choosing a new captain of the titanic. I’m not concerned that Trump is doing so well. Rather, I’m terribly disappointed in my conservative brethren. They are falling into the same trap the Obama supporters fell into in 2008.
And you say “life goes on”. Yes it does. Watch Dr. Zivago. Watch The Pianist. Life does, indeed, go on. But to think we are immune to the mistakes of other Godless societies is a grave error.
And I am not beating myself up. I would be if I had not moved from Seattle to my farm in KY back in 2011. I’m just sorely disappointed in my brethren. But then, that is what people do - prove why Christ had to give his life for us. Every single one of us.
