I have a professor friend who is writing a book about women who have run for the presidency, and I honestly don't know how she gets out of bed in the morning. I so respect any optimism y'all can muster.
Richard, I feel this. The photos really tell the story. And the story of the Trump administration is a single-character movie starring one person driven by greed, power, and corruption. It's devastating.
What a heart warming message at a time in America as we weather the brutality of trumpian stooges brutalizing American citizens. Thank you Vice President Harris for your service.
Even harder to see these images now that we have been battered and bloodied after a year led by such thirst for power, blatant corruption, ruthless greed and pervasive racism/misogyny. Thank you for reminding us what grownups look like.
And to think a no class woman of color would stand by her feckless man. She has enough wealth to function without his lily white ass. Really? I hope ice gets her and her brown children. Wiggle out of that one you f*ing billionaire. You deserve it until you make it stop.
Great article and great pictures, Azza. To see high-class Kamala and her family replaced by no-class Vance is a rude awakening.
A rude awakening indeed!! I am still not over it
That story about "the wife" indeed said it all about that jerk. What a troglodyte. Okay, my words came back...
Glad your words came back :) they are always great words!!

I eagerly await this book!! What’s the authors name? And the only way out is through. At least that’s what I tell myself…
No words, Azza, other than thanks for showing up.
I remember all the wonderful pictures from the Obama administration - the ones showing his sunny disposition, kindness, and humanity.
I can't think of a single photo from EITHER Trump administration that makes him look like a decent person.

Thank you! It breaks my heart about what we could have had.
Me too, Teresa. 💔
Wonderful essay. Filled my eyes with tears. Yes, we lost so much. Thank you for your steady gaze!
Esther 🥹 we lost so much but that does not mean we are lost!
Yes! So true. The moment of noticing the handshake will stick with me.

Thank you, Polly, for the kind words. We are in this together!

Oof Janice, well said. It’s true that we have seen so much this year. And we must not normalize it.
And to think a no class woman of color would stand by her feckless man. She has enough wealth to function without his lily white ass. Really? I hope ice gets her and her brown children. Wiggle out of that one you f*ing billionaire. You deserve it until you make it stop.
I can’t listen to this.
It made me cry too. But I appreciate the chance to bear witness. It shouldn't be forgotten.
