Helen to her friend Margaret
Best Friends for Sixty Years and Counting…

You get knocked down and
you get up again, wipe the orange stain from your clothes
and then what?

Margaret, maybe we have this all wrong. Maybe the big news didn’t happen on Tuesday. Maybe it was Wednesday. They say Trump woke a sleeping giant, but maybe that giant didn’t wake up before the election. Maybe it woke after the election when we all finally realized that everything we hold true and dear about this nation can indeed be taken away. Maybe, just maybe the sleeping giant is actually the millions who trusted in hope and love instead of those who walked into a polling booth and secretly voted for hate and fear.

I saw a map today of voters age 18-25. The map was shockingly blue from coast to coast and even in the middle. Could this be true? And if so, how do we ensure those voters don’t become jaded?

I am not sure what is next for Margaret & Helen but we are not dead yet. And I’ll be damned if we go down without a fight. We’ll promise to try and hold on until 2020 if you promise to hold on with us.

First up, 2018 midterms. We’ll be here. Will you?

Whomever we are and whatever color we are, and whatever age we are, and whatever gender we are, and whatever sexual preference, religious belief, city or town, church, mosque or synagogue… we are awake now. And this is our country.

We are battle worn but not battle weary. Someone has to watch that skunk Trump and keep him in line. And someone has to watch the Republican powerhouse and make sure they don’t overreach. Our elected Dems need us now more than ever.


Helen Philpot


Wake up! Wake up! I mean it. Really.


This too shall pass…
like a kidney stone.



Dear Hillary,

We are so proud of you. Take some time off, dear. We’ll take it from here.
Dear Readers of Margaret & Helen,

Our greatest work starts now. If you have a neighbor who has been targeted this election, hug them and remind them that this is still their America too. If you have a neighbor who voted for Trump, congratulate them on their win and then move on.

In their wisdom, the Founding Fathers prepared us for this. Call your local Democratic office today and ask them how you can get involved. Washington moves mercifully slow. We have two years to take Congress away from this man and four years to restore our dignity.

Our Democracy is stronger than one man and one election. This grand experiment we call the United States has not failed. It has just begun.

Today we heal.

Tomorrow we act.

2018 we correct.

2020 we redeem.

We broke it and now we must fix it. The world is counting on us. I mean it. Really.

How long before "the president is ill-tempered, dishonest, unqualified, and already doing a bad job — and he has no
media magic that can help him cover that up." .. is fully understood and accepted by a huge majority of voters.

Donald Trump is remarkably unpopular

He won. He’s taking office. But most people don’t like him.

A solid majority already see it in the president-elect.

Hi, I just noticed you PM'd me agreeing that you too are wondering why Deval Patrick is joining the Dem race, so you are still following this board. I am new here and I noticed that this was your last post here...the night before the whiny little bitch stumbled upwards. https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=126402414

Reading that article was amazingly spot on. Anyways, I was wondering why you stopped posting after his victory. I mean you don't even post about stocks. PM me or not or... if you like.

I hope Drumph doesn't have something on you for your silence, cause I am wondering if being in Canada is far enough away if he wins again. ttlol

Thanks for the reply, hope moral America will step up in Nov 2020 to remove the distaste in your mouth and give you reason to post again.
Take care.
