Voters casting their ballots on one of the dominant party lines have given America a President-elect, returning First Lady Melania and Donald John to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
America is in Crisis, Time to Heal
Whatever the preferences of individual Americans or groups—the time has come, and is long past time, to bind up our wounds and bridge the gulf between us (gulfs among us).
Time to heal our sick and wounded, no matter the illness (mental, moral or physical)—instead of deepening and profiteering on dependency.
It is time to house our homeless in permanent dwellings—instead of discarding our people to refugee camps in their homeland. It is time to ensure sound education and training and put our people to substantive work earning living wages.
It is long past time to end the manufacture of enemies, end the fear mongering, end the wars and war profiteering. Long past time to roll up our sleeves and get to work solving our problems, our country’s problems. End the infantile and dangerous game of shirking responsibility and blaming others for our failures, our missteps, and our endemic problems. It is long past time to mend our brokenness at every level of society and government.
Astute Observation from Afar
At this Moment in the United States of America, “people are literally ready to attack each other, beat each other, just because” a person supporting a particular politician is observed wearing “symbols or campaigns for that politician…”
Based on observed experience of past elections, the “main challenge” facing the United States of America (as a nation and as a people) is ensuring that this election’s electoral results “are accepted by society.” And “whatever that outcome,” Americans are “going to have to overcome the internal emotional divide” (excerpt, added emphasis, minor edit).

We will welcome the United States of America’s Forty-fifth President (Donald John Trump) returned by the electorate as America’s Forty-seventh President.
We will wish him well. We will wish him wisdom.
And we hope (I hope) that he will work actively with elected and nonelected Americans to help America (and Americans) heal.
