Dear Americans, how do you go back to normal after such an election campaign? (lemmy.world)

The atmosphere is so heated, and the statements are getting more and more extreme. Let's just assume Harris wins the election. After a campaign like this, how could you ever have a normal relationship with your pro-Trump neighbor/father-in-law/Uncle/Barber or what ever again?

Was America ever "normal"?

Ignore it all in the first place.

It won't be over when it's over. If Trump loses we'll never hear the end of how he was cheated and maga people will get extra weird, maybe violent.

If Trump wins, we'll have trump for president, which from experience is also not normal.

Most my friends are republicans so we shit talk a lot back and forth. After the election we will just shit talk about something else. Yes we are over 40 and still act like teenagers.

My main concern right now is that my two oldest kids are asking me why I’m voting for Harris lol.
