Totally agree. I’m astounded at the attraction of his “policies”.

and now, these hours later, it's all just so fucking grim.

I find myself talking to friends of mine born (as I was, just) in the '40s and right now, the best thing we can come up with is : "well our day-to-day lives will change very little if we..." and the ellipse says everything. if...WHAT??

it's not even the ideology, which is loathsome at all times and nasty/idiotic at its most brilliant. it's the vessel as well. it feels like half the country just said "up your ass, yeah we're electing a senile sociopath because that's how we feel about you."

this feels like shit and I hope like hell everything will be different when I wake up.

Sorry, everything won't be different when you wake up. But do not despair. You come from people who have experienced worse and it didn't defeat them.
