I don't know about anyone else but I could live the rest of my life

without ever seeing or listening to DJT ever again. I try my best to avoid it at all costs but sometimes it happens unexpectedly and then I get disgusted. Even during President Biden's term, we had to hear about him every damn day without fail. What is it about him? What's so special about that abomination that we have to hear about every little thing he says and does? You tell me because I'm at a complete and total loss.

I know he's the president but the amount of coverage, even when he wasn't president, is too much.

Enough already! There have been 11 years of this nonsense (I'm trying to keep it clean). I can't believe that I have to spend my so-called "golden years" like this. All I want to do is live in peace with my cats.

if you want in any way to keep up with the news you CANNOT avoid seeing or hearing or reading about that fascist assclown, all the while knowing EXACTLY how it would be reported if a Dem president behave like that - ESPECIALLY a woman / POC

I don't watch any television news or opinion so I never hear him there, but he's so often in the news of our local public radio station that I've been avoiding it.

If it was up to me, and I ran a radio or television station, I'd replace his voice with the quacking of an angry duck.

But, short of that, I'd be content simply never to see or hear him again.

I can only listen to about two or three minutes. If I really have to know what’s going on I listen with closed captioning on.

His face; his voice; that stupid accordian thing he does with hands; his make-up; his hair; the way he "dances"; the pose he makes with his nose tilted up when he thinks he's said something profound; etc. It all makes my skin crawl.

I'm sorry you don't want to hear anything about him, but for heaven's sake, CARE ENOUGH TO PAY ATTENTION! Every damn day he or his minions are breaking something this nation once held valuable, or inflicting deliberate cruelty on our marginalized neighbors, or putting us in the crosshairs of our enemies. Do you honestly think avoidance is the best policy? WE NEED YOU TO STEP UP, SPEAK OUT, FIGHT BACK! Our democracy is not a spectator sport, tucked away in some closet until Election Day. If you insist on ignoring the many, many, many criminal and corrupt activities of this evil man "because you are sick of him," sorry. We're sick to death of him too, but we are going to continue to hear him, out him, condemn him, and DESTROY him at every opportunity. There are too many dunces not paying attention already. WAKE UP!

Few of us want to hear the orange wannabe warlord or see his stupid face. That doesn't mean we aren't paying attention.

Couching your comments in your version of patriotism doesn't change the fact that you missed the mark.

Geez.

But the media loves him because he is outrageous and that produces clicks.

He's disgusting. Not that I have an opinion mind you... 😉

There are certain news websites that I cannot visit anymore because his face is plastered all over them. His face, and the sound of his voice make me furious. He is a cancer on our country and our democracy.
