What should we expect from the American public this week? Ask Myke Merrill, D.Min., author of “Why Do People Act that Way? (And What Can I Do About It?)” Dr. Myke says, “One prevalent emotional response to the election and its results can be anxiety — a foreboding sense of risk and disaster. A second significant response, and possibly of greater issue, can be rage, all up and down the anger scale — a powerful desire to bring about change or get control. People experiencing these two powerful emotional systems tend to be very vocal and active about professing and stressing their inner response onto anyone and everyone within range.” Dr. Myke can also explain more common and subtle emotional responses to the election, which he says can be just as powerful and important to acknowledge. Dr. Myke Merrill was a panelist on the national television show “Ask the Pastor” for 18 years. Contact him at (585) 615-6383;
