The Haunted White House

The creep haunting the White House
Has attempted to strip this country bare
And to jeopardize our American democracy
But there is an impending election
In less than two weeks
And Iā€™m hoping that
I will have a buoyant feeling
Because this nightmare
Will finally be over

Or will it?

    I’m still on the edge. I want to assume that there are more people who believe in being good and just… but then, how did we get here in the first place? Still hoping… still hoping…

    Wonderful use of the prompt words.

          No, I missed it. šŸ™ when you post it, itā€™s usually around 11 pm my time, so sometimes, when Iā€™m tired, I donā€™t see it and when I wake up in the morning, I might not go back enough to see it. Iā€™ll go read it now.

    Two weeks! Yikes. You must be all on tenterhooks. Do you vote on election day, or is it mostly all done beforehand? I don’t understand the US system at all šŸ™‚

      Iā€™ve already voted and so have around 40 million others. But many will still vote on Election Day. In 2016, around 123 million votes were cast.

        That’s a lot of votes!! And it’s not compulsory, too, which blows my mind (in a good way).

      I hope so too, but Iā€™m still very worried with all of the dirty tricks that the Republicans are pulling.
