He'd be perfect in a movie about a patient in a psychiatric institution. All he'd have to do is be himself.

I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine
There's gotta be a little rain sometime
When you take, you gotta give
So live and let live or let go, whoa-whoa-whoa
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
I could promise you things like big diamond rings
But you don't find roses growin' on stalks of clover
So you better think it over
Well, if sweet-talkin' you could make it come true
I would give you the world right now on a silver platter
But what would it matter
So smile for a while and let's be jolly
Love shouldn't be so melancholy
Come along and share the good times while we can
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine
There's gotta be a little rain sometime
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon
But if that's what it takes to hold you
I'd just as soon let you go
But there's one thing I want you to know
You better look before you leap, still waters run deep
And there won't always be someone there to pull you out
And you know what I'm talking about
So smile for a while and let's be jolly
Love shouldn't be so melancholy
Come along and share the good times while we can
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine
There's gotta be a little rain sometime
I beg your pardon
I never promised you a rose garden

Trump's the clown prince of self-aggrandizement.

That gold…
If the White House is the people’s house, who the fuck are “the people”?
I hope to see the day that all that crap is torn down and the vast majority of “the people” celebrate. I have no idea how we’ll get from here to there.

Trump: Since 1978 the Kennedy Center honors have been amongst the most prestigious awards. I wanted one, never able to get one. I would have taken it. I waited and waited and waited and I said to hell with it, I'll become chairman. I will give myself an honor. Next year we'll honor trump, okay?

There’s so much there there in that comment.
I’ve been making a deliberate effort not to be such a news junkie. It’s just too damn disturbing.
I heard something today about NASA satellites being decommissioned and allowed to burn up in the not distant future? The damage to science, health research, the environment is fucking appalling. And the tom foolery at the BLS. I have zero faith in any government institution at this point. Economic, the NIH, the CDC, EPA, justice department…all ruined.

Unless the trajectory is significantly changed, if you're not one of the "special" people and you have something to lose, you're probably going to lose it.

It's very disturbing and I get really fuckin' mad at times. I have learned to walk away when I feel that way. I haven't watched any political programming in nearly a year and I'm better for it. I haven't always paid attention to politics, but that changed when trump came on the scene. In many ways I liked it better when politics bored me to tears.

I have been watching local news then I switch off. I don't want to see Trumps ugly face, listen to his stupid voice or witness his disgusting behaviour. I am so sick of him. He is loathed overseas. I also think he stole your election. Musk hacked it. So I think the majority of your countrymen hate him too.

A guy I know on FB (and knew as a teen) made a post this morning that he was going to stop making political posts (most of which were anti Trump).
I think it’s a little hair flip drama (just don’t post them, lol) but it’s also disturbing. Those of us who are getting fried and tuning out…
People sometimes wonder how Germans allowed the rise of Hitler. When a big part of the population gives up, there u go.

That's right, so don't you dare give up!
I know it's hard sometimes, there is a tsunami of bullshit everyday. I can't tell you to go for a run but I can tell you to grab your device and read some fiction or go sit in your yard with Rylee.

I’ve never watched the news, I just don’t fucking care. I’ve made it this far without paying much attention so I’m not going to start now just because I’m an old fart. I don’t want to end up like my Aunt Barb and uncle Bill freaking out about the news all day.

When the newly hired ICE rednecks show up to rape the women and lynch the blacks, people will get fired up.
Coming soon to a blue state near you.
