    In My Experience #5 | "Surprisingly Zen About the Collapse of Democracy": 2020 Presidential Election

    Today we talk about how we're feeling heading into the US 2020 Presidential Election. We talk about the feeling we get on campus and from our friends, the possible outcomes, and the potential for political shenanigans. We also dive into what stresses and worries we have, and how we are coping with them. While we are talking about politics, and don't try to hide our leanings, we try to keep from getting too partisan.  We are both concerned about who gets elected, but our conversation today is much more about if either Trump or Biden will be elected fairly and smoothly.
