Expanding on what Jo had to say here - we've come to focus on our national politics, which are as toxic, divisive and dysfunctional as they've been in a generation or two, if not longer. Meanwhile, a lot of important and impactful work on the local level is being neglected, ignored or not properly acknowledged. It can be easy to despair when your team takes a big loss at the federal level, but the best salve could be simply moving on and getting involved in your neighborhood, school or wherever. You'll probably find people with different points of view can still respect and work with each other. And even if that's not the case, you've a good chance of being able to repair that relationship compared to trying to do so arguing with strangers on the other side of the political divide through social media. Touch grass, shake hands and figure out how to get things built together again.
