I am going to take a different approach.  We live in extremely divided and
trying times for many.  Instead of expressing hate and negativity may I
suggest a positive approach of supporting that(those) candidates that will
move policy in the direction that brings us all to better places.  By
focusing entirely on what you don't like you bring negative energy into you
and those around you.  Tina, focusing on the positive aspects of social
justice has brought relief to literally thousands.  Brian, by bringing a
far flung group into a cozy saloon you have enriched thousands of us.

Which candidates, groups, unions, religious affiliations can move the
world(executive branch) in a direction that looks out for the down trodden
and heavy laden then support those groups and individuals.  Every person
picking up a brick can form a great edifice( I can't say wall) in a short
amount of time.

All the best.
