Well, you might as well watch a video of a couple bald eagles stuck in a storm drain today. 

The sorry affair happened in Orlando, Florida, and the the whole thing was captured by WFAA-TV on Facebook Live. Just a typical day in the United States in 2016. 

SEE ALSO: You don't have to organize today. You can just grieve.

One eagle got caught, and its mate stuck around in solidarity. It's unclear how it happened, so we can only assume why. Eagles aren't having a great year

Either way, the internet thought it was too soon for such metaphor, nature.

Florida Fish and Wildlife stepped in to save the living, breathing symbols of American democracy, but they cannot help you.
