Singer John Legend compared the US 2020 Elections to the 2018 mid-term elections. He also asked fans not to get stressed and feel too much premature anxiety about the process. However, it seems like John Legend’s wife Chrissy Teigen could not listen to his advice as she shared several posts about her feeling stressed due to US Presidential Elections 2020. Talking about election stress, the Dancing With the Stars champion, Laurie Hernandez also shared a GIF explaining that she has never felt this kind of stress before.
This feels like 2018. A lot of stress and premature takes until all the votes were counted and the democrats did quite well. Let them count.

Singer Halsey shared her trick during the US Presidential Elections 2020. She mentioned that she is feeling sick because she is reading too much news so she decided to stay away from the news. However, she added that when she did so she felt guilty for being apathetic and anxious about the news that she is not reading. She ended her note saying that she is reading news and being anxious but feeling better as she is informed.
And for today’s trick, I’ll be feeling sick because I’m reading too much news so deciding to stay away from news then feeling guilty for being apathetic and anxious about the news that I’m not reading so reading news and getting anxious but feeling better for being informed !
