Olivia Pope began trending on Twitter hours after Tuesday’s jaw-dropping election saw Donald Trump land the presidency.

Alas, Kerry Washington took to Twitter to remind people that Ms. Pope is a fictional character, while the results of the election are very, very real. Self-care is what is needed now.
