Regarding:

Keep in mind that half of America is thrilled with the election results. I’m in an industry where I’ve seen literally thousands of people lose their jobs due to the crushing burden of regulations. Plus, the US is one of the highest taxed countries in the world as well which does not help businesses. The other candidate would have not improved these factors. While I’m not a fan of the new President, over 80% of the counties in the U.S. voted for him.

Just keep this in mind when writing about how people feel about the election.

Thanks,
Chris
