It’s been exactly one month since I’ve exposed myself to the Presidential campaign land mines and the resulting shrapnel. I went to bed each night feeling so much better than when I was absorbing the toxins of the daily campaign. I controlled what I could.

Tonight, will be the first time the sound will be turned up for the news networks when I watch the election results.

It’s 3pm and I’ve voted. I have not ever had this much apprehension before a Presidential election. Over the years, I’ve won some and I’ve lost some. With the elections that I “lost”, I never felt that my future would be drastically changed by someone that embodies everything that opposes my morale convictions. The two choices have no shades of grey for me, just black and white. I controlled what I could.

Equally as frightening are the hordes of Trump followers. They honestly don’t see that the King has no clothes! Whether they win or lose, I still expect many of them to act like hooligans.

Not knowing who the next President will be, what would each candidate do if elected regarding just a couple of issues happening today that they will face tomorrow?

Item one, today, in Marrakech, Morocco, climates negotiators representing 100 countries are meeting to implement the Paris Agreement on global warming. This is BIG. Hillary supports the agreement. Donald, on the other hand has said that he would “cancel” the deal if he is elected. When French Environment Minister Segolene Royal said, “The wealthiest countries live as if there were three planets” he could have included Donald in that group.

Item two, yesterday, Kurdish forces entered the ISIS held city of Hamam al-Alil in Iraq. During their advancement into the city, they discovered a mass grave containing over 100 decapitated bodies. One hint of the atrocities that will be discovered as they canvas the city.

Meanwhile, the combined forces of at least 9 military groups and countries are successfully taking back Mosul in Iraq and they are also making headway into Ragga, Syria. These two cities are major hubs for ISIS. The advancing forces have encountered a wave of car bombs that ISIS uses as an offensive weapon. The collateral damage from these huge bombs is devastating. But, they are advancing.

If elected, Hillary would continue to support this initiative understanding from experience what a challenge is was to coordinate all the different countries, groups and militias to work together for a common cause and goal. Especially since they all hate each other…just not as much as they hate ISIS.

Trump on the other hand has called the coalition effort a “total disaster” criticizing them for giving notice of their attack.  But then he doesn’t see the citizens hovering in the corners of the buildings being bombed. Maybe he knows how to defeat ISIS without all those other guys, but he’ll only tell us after he’s elected…like all his policies.

That’s only two issues that will be affected by the decision we make tonight. Add to that the differences between them on healthcare, deregulation, tax reform and human dignity.

Am I nervous? Heck, yes! If Scarlet were here I’d tell her “… tomorrow is NOT just another day”.
