Unless you're in a mixed status family/community, it's difficult to understand how stressful this is rn. So much guilt, anxiety, fear.

Is it a stretch to suggest that Donald Trump is going to do exactly what he said he promised he would do on Day One? Umm.

People are in their feelings about the inauguration because Trump's presidency is about who gets to live and who gets to die. Remember that.
