Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsDoes anyone else put their hand up over Donald Trump video on screen?
I watch the great video commentaries but they spit screen to that asshole and it is no longer enough to mute him. I need to not see him. I find myself holding my hand up to block him from sight. Tell me I'm not alone.

Any image. Block it out.
I've been doing that for about 5 years. Sometimes I quickly switch to CNN from MSNBC or visa-versa. Sometimes I just turn the damn TV off.
