Editor's note: As Shark blog readers will testify, Your ProbateShark is apolitical and a paragon of fairness. This Shark lives in an extremely liberal community, being Nuclear Free, assault rifle free, and the only users of pistol magazines over 10 rounds being the gang-banger punks that migrated from North Chicago to shoot a 14 year old resident.  After the recent presidential election results, your Shark noticed residents with puffy dark circled eyes in the local grocery.  It was as if it was "the last days  of the Weimar Republic" had befallen my community.  The following quote from a noted actress typifies the effect:   

"Speaking of: How did you feel about the outcome of the election?
It felt like someone died. It felt like a ­combination of the heartbreak and betrayal you feel when someone you love more than anything leaves you, and also a death. I feel that way every morning; I wake up and say, “Oh, wait, Donald Trump is still the president,” and it wasn’t a bad dream that I had. It feels like women betrayed us. The percentage of women who voted for Trump was insanely high.
Why do you think that is?
Women hate women. That’s what I think it is. Women’s nature is not to support other women. It’s really sad. Men protect each other, and women protect their men and children. Women turn inward and men are more external. A lot of it has do with jealousy and some sort of tribal inability to accept that one of their kind could lead a nation. Other people just didn’t bother to vote because they didn’t like either candidate, or they didn’t think Trump had a chance in the world. They took their hands off the wheel and then the car crashed.
Were you surprised?
Of course. I was devastated, surprised, in shock. I haven’t really had a good night’s sleep since he has been elected. We’re f—ed."
