Schadenfreude

It’s a German word.  Of course it is.  How many other cultures do you think would have a specific word that means the “emotional experience of pleasure in response to another’s misfortune.”


In any case, I think I will be experiencing a lot of schadenfreude as various groups of Trump voters begin to experience the pain of Trump’s policies that affect them.  I know it is wrong, even petty, but I can’t help it.
